Re: Help please/possible HOAX

From:RSRICHMOND@aol.com

Well, I don't think the notice about Ms. Thompson's third grade class should 
have been posted on Histonet, but I'm inclined to think - unless somebody 
comes up with evidence to the contrary - that it's probably not a hoax.

I replied to it, and here's the "Yahoo Auto Reply" I got:
