Fw: Help please/possible HOAX

From:Jan Shivers <shive003@maroon.tc.umn.edu>

I would hope that most people would realize that this is a sure-fire way for
a less-than-honest person to get a list of people's email addresses, and
perhaps use them for other purposes.  My advice is to be safe and delete
these types of messages as soon as you receive them.  (And in the off-chance
that this is an honest request, Ms. Thompson's class will get along just
fine without your input.)
