gcc help requested (Could somebody kill this message please)

[Jeff Lasslett]

To Whom it may concern,
					I've been receiving the following email for the
last two days.  I've even responded to it.  Could somebody please stop it
from being sent repeatedly as it is beginning to annoy me.  

cheers,
	Jeff
