I hope that most Xisto members are computer-savvy enough to notice that the URL doesn't come from the Google domain.

Plus, it should filter to your Spam folder anyway.

I guess that doesn't surprise me, since I've gotten spam in my Inbox from time to time.

Nothing's perfect, but I can say that GMail is pretty damn awesome compared to other feeble attempts made by other e-mail services.

Good looking out.

Now hopefully you did the smart thing and went to 110.com and sent a email stating the fact that this domain is a bad domain. Of course you need to show the proof of it as well so hopefully you save something to that fact.
