Hi Janet, glad to see you are still kicking. Yes, I wonder if the future is not to hire some commercial service to filter our email? Seems like our ISPs should do that, perhaps for a slight additional charge. But I have "killed" nonspam emails that mistakenly got into the spam list with my spamfilter (McAfee Spamkiller) and I am sure a commercial spamkiller would do the same thing. Thanks for the info about Spamcop.

Allen

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
