Spam from Folders

Thread moved to "Issues with this forum" forum ...
If you're receiving PM spam, please post the username of the spamming user. An admin will investigate.
I'll send them a head up about your spam

prolificus has been banned.
Re: Spam from Folders
Thanks.
I didn't find a way to report or forward a PM to an admin.
"admin" isn't even a valid username.
This would be more convenient and efficient than what we're doing here.
Best regards,
François

Re: Spam from Folders
In future either email admin {at} foldingforum {dot} org, or send a PM to either myself or bruce (or both).
Re: Spam from Folders
Thanks uncle.
But I was asking how to forward the spam PM.
There's no "Forward" or "Report" button in the PM reading window. (at least I don't see them)
And from the PM index, I only see a drop-down list which allows to mark/unmark a message as important, delete it, or move it the the Saved folder.
Best,
François

Re: Spam from Folders
The old Copy/Paste should work.
And for clarity, you could wrap what you copy/paste in "QUOTE" marks.
Peace

Re: Spam from Folders
Thanks, banned. Unfortunately any PMs already sent won't be removed automatically.

Re: Spam from Folders
If you click on the ! in the triangle at the top near the Quote radio button it will link you to a place to report the Post.
