Call from Board....they don't like my email address - i put down nobody@yahoo.com - the black hole of email addresses. Demanded my 'real' one. So some jackdonkey from 60 miles away can harrass me about what a great listing he has in Timbuktu...

And they sent a list of my "employees"...none so go away. Didn't mail it in. They now are threatening to cut me off at end of Month if I don't mail it in.

This MLS is one big fat pain. I have news for them..give me one more year and I won't need them. They are pretty unreliable help anyway.
 
I signed up for a "real" hotmail account just to satisfy the local association's requirement. I diligently check it every month just in case they send me something important. :)
 
There is more than one way to satisfy the unreasonable demands of the MLS gods. establish an E-Mail account for junk mail, give them that address, never check that account.

As for employees, send them back a message stating that you have zero employees, end of problem.
 
What you don't like your MLS flavor of spam?:)
 
The junk email account works for me. Use it all the time. Giggle when I give it out.
 
Yeah, I have a special viagarow personal response to these MLS a holes that spam me with no unsubscribe option.

After vigorously personally and digitally humping their leg, I am released from subscription.:new_smile-l:
 
I have 3 spoof emails, one is just for the Realtors... :icon_mrgreen:
 
C'mon....you can have fun with this one!

For example, new email suggestions:
  • SendYourJunkEmailHere@yahoo.com
  • HeresTheRealEmailAddyYouWanted@yahoo.com
  • WhyAreYouSendingMeThisCrapImNotGoingToReadItAnyway@yahoo.com
  • LeaveMeTheHellAlone@yahoo.com
  • IfYouHitSendItMeansIGetAFreeMLSSubscription@yahoo.com
  • IfYouHitSendItMeansYouLoveMe@yahoo.com
 
Another cutie --if you want a TRUE black hole, go to www.spamgourmet.com
Set up an account.
Give the MLS a "valid" address, and allow one (1) email to get through.
