Contact box vs email Mar 28, 2008

My email is not in my resume, although I am set to accept emails through ProZ.


Then your email address was not revealed. They had to paste the text manually in the contact box. This is still time consuming and this is why you only received *one* of the kind.

Just getting one from time to time from the dialogue box is nothing compared to the hundreds that you would end up getting if the spammers had your address (they are exchanging "databases" of addresses, so the number follows an exponential curve with time, usually). Which doesn't mean that it should be left as such.

I just forwarded it to my isp, but maybe I should have contacted the site moderators as well.


Not maybe, you should have. Right away.
