I would like to endorse Tim's comments. There is precedent for job vacancies
being posted to the list, but to abuse the list by treating it as a source
of e-mail addresses for spam is intolerable. I hope that Mr Wilkes will be
removed forthwith, although of course the damage is done as he already has
all of our e-mail addresses.
I have little faith in a recruitment consultant who so blatantly ignores
(doesn't even understand?) the DPA when trying to recruit a DP Manager!

Protection Mana ger
I think we ALL got this twice.
MODERATOR/LIST MANAGER:
THIS is abuse of our list. Please take relevant and necessary
action
forthwith.
I admit I feel that me persona details have now been used OUTSIDE
the scope
for which they were collected, since I received it as a personal
email. To
me it is a prima facie breach of the Data Protection Act 1998.
Oddly IO
wouldn't object in such a strong manner if the message had ONLY been
sent to
THIS list as an internal list distribution.
This also leads me to the security of this list. Since I can
discover by a
simple command who all the recipients are, is this list itself
within the
act?

I think I've seen it all now!!!
I got a similar email to my personal email address, starting with
the
immortal words:
"My apologies for the SPAM, but I am desperate."
Desperate for what? Desperate to get your email account terminated??
