Yes, got it. Has me considering unsubscribing. Headline is the sort you see in 'chumbox' ad banners.

In my Googling, I found the following. This server 'ibemail.com' and its associated spam is 'legit' in that it's probably sanctioned by the site owners, not due to some hacking of the email database. There is an unsubscribe link in the email, though I saw some complaints that it didn't work. For stuff like this, I am leery of enabling Javascript, which may be required to use the unsubscribe link. So, I will not bother and will not worry about the 'unsubscribe' link. Instead, I've added a filter to my email client: "send emails with 'ibemail.com' in the body to the 'trash' folder". It worked to remove that email. I hope it doesn't remove all actually-legitimate bikeforums email, but we'll see.
