Default Conceal Identity

Every post I make to newsgroups is being maliciously tracked by a certain
individual. I then receive pornographic email at home. Is there a way to
conceal one's identity completely (headers) when posting to a newsgroup
using Outlook Express 6.0?

Look at my e-mail address in this post. Think I'll ever get e-mail
there? Munge your e-mail address. Use a domain that isn't registered
(so it doesn't exist now and won't exist later). Use .invalid as the
TLD (inplace of .com or .net).

You are probably getting spam more due to YOU exposing your true e-mail
address in your posts where spambots roam the newsgroups to harvest
them.
