About 3 a day

I cover my tracks pretty well.

Although recently i have been getting those really annoying "hello, my name is iesha and i love you very much, please visit my home page blah blah!" spam mails.

Whoever sends this shit out should be killed on sight...with a forklift truck! White laugh

Spam sucks

Actually there are at least 4 kinds of spam.

•	The 1st is because you were too stupid and published your email somewhere, e.g. in this forum.

•	The 2nd is because you own a domain name and spammer send to efghfgjydsgf@yourdomain.com etc.

•	The 3rd is because you had to signup somewhere and had to enter your email address

•

The 4th became more and more annoying the last months. Spammers are using your domain name to send spam. So somebody else sends "Buy university diploma" and uses "diploma@yourdomain.com" as the sender (without your knowledge). Some of the receipients (to which the spammer sends) don't exist and the emails come back "undeliverable" to whom? Yep, to diploma@yourdomain.com.

the e-mail address of the company I work for gets about 150 spam messages a day. Well, the address is published on the website, so no wonder.

To my personal e-mail box I received about 2-5 spam letters dailyb but that was before I was

Once your email is out... there is no return.

I use a special email address just to signup somewhere (e.g. to forums or to lotteries).

I use Hotmail.com and that has a spam blocker, so I get 0 amounts of spam mail ever. It has setting so that emails only come from adresses you want them to.

but you can still get your blocked list fillled up

posted by Agent Zero

There's not a block list, but an allow list.
I don't know how many adresses the allow list can take but I'd guess about 150+.

My hotmail account is fine, but Outlook Express is a whole new ball game.

I had 72 in one day, and only one of them was from someone I knew Cool
