Challenge/Response for IM

If you were sent here as a result of messaging me via yahoo or jabber, read on.

Spam has pervaded even instant messaging, to the point of it almost being preferable to disable entirely. However, I still have a great number of Yahoo contacts that I wish to remain in touch with. Anyone not on my contact list, is being sent to this page. Please don't take this personally :-)

You can still reach me via messenger, by simply using jason somewhere in the message. Any followup messages to me after that during that session will come through unimpeded. You'll need to resend the message that triggered the auto-reply for me to see it.

Alternately, you can email me - jfesler@gigo.com .

If you are interested in how I did this, see Challenge response for bitlbee created.
