I'm tired of spam.....

[thecoalman]

Having a business has made spam a chore, after filtering and deleting the obvious there's still a ton of shit I have to look at. I'm so fed up with it I think I would support a small price per piece of sent e-mail. Say around half a cent, nothing for the average user but a huge expense for the spammer.

Of course if they started that the next thing you know it would cost just as much as sending a regular snail mail.

I get 50per day sometimes....usually a bit less. I have a free e-mail account so I can bitch TOO much. Spammers should be killed though in my opinion.

I get no spam. Not even a lousy spammer wants
to talk to me

Seriously, try mailwash or see if your isp has
an anti spam service you can lease.

I don't actually GET the spam mails. They end up in my spam folder. I just get an e-mail every morning telling me how many I received overnight. I go and clean them out each day.....checking for one that is NOT spam. I hardly ever come across that scenario but I've caught some....mostly from old friends of mine who have changed emal addys.

I don't have a isp e-mail addy. When I set up the cable I couldn't do it through the router so they had to manually configure it over the phone. I never finished the registration process. All my e-mail comes through my websites and I don't trust the filters as they have filtered stuff I wanted. I uise outlook express word filters which eliminates all of the blatant spam but that's only a fraction of it. Another issue is that 3 of 4 e-mail addresses I use are on my websites and others where it's collected by spam bots.

The trouble is that since a lot of it is business e-mail some of the subject lines closely resemble what I would expect... I have no choice but to wade through it.

You should be glad you are not Bill Gates.

He is the most spammed person in the world.

I thought Hormel was the most Spam-med person in the world???

Quit putting your real e-mail address on web pages. Learn ASP and formmail.
