Did you get spam emails in your personal emails, yet found nothing in your Minti mailbox?

Here is what happened:

Less than 24 hours ago, a member created a Minti account for the purpose of sending members spam emails. I happen to be on when it happened, and I deleted the member and the I also deleted the spam from everyone's Minti mailboxes. Shortly after, the member created another account and did the same thing. Unfortunately, while I have the capability to erase the spam emails from everyone's minti mailboxes, I can't stop the system from emailing a copy to your personal mailboxes. This is why you have a copy in your personal emails, but you don't see it in your minti mailboxes.

The member created another account, for the 3rd time, however I wasn't on the computer when it happened. (I am in the US, so I am asleep while all the Aussies are awake!).

Should this happen again, please feel free to report the spammer.

Again, I want to reassure everyone that your personal email addresses are still private.

Thanks Izzy.  We got rid of one persistant spammer, and another comes along.  Will keep my eyes out for any other mischevious spammers.

I received 2 emails to my personal email, from  the different user names. When I checked minti there was only the 1 which I put in a report about. I didn't get an email from the 3rd account but did notice it there.
