IIRC, LinkedIn does that by default, you have to tell it NOT to invite everyone in your address book. Only way to cancel it (I think) is to go into your LinkedIn account settings, somewhere I think it will show you a list of outstanding invites and let you cancel them. Of course, now that YOU'RE in LinkedIn, you get to look forward to the barrage of LinkedIn spam ... On 02/19/2014 11:31 AM, John Wilson wrote:
That LinkedIn thing was a mistake. Someone I know asked me to join, so I did. The damn thing then sent a message to every address in my mailbox including you and the U.S. Consulate in Vancouver. :-) Sorry. I have to try and find out how to cancel it all.

Why are you sending this to the whole list??
Do you know that it should only be done by the owner of the FractInt List??
Here is what the above web link has to say when you click it:
"Signing in will add the e-mail <fractint@mailman.xmission.com <mailto:fractint@mailman.xmission.com>__> to your LinkedIn account. Do not continue if that e-mail address does not belong to you."
Sincerely, P.N.L.
