By the way, that is a terribly high amount. It sounds like there is no spam filtration from your service provider plus the addresses are 'released'.
Most spam today can easily and reliably be filtered at the mail host sites. The only times that I have heard of a problem is with a few that over do the filtering. I have never run into that in all my years on the internet but I also tend to avoid the ultra cheap providers. jim On Jun 18, 2006, at 6:57 PM, Jeremy Taffel wrote: > hitchies wrote: >> Jim - bad luck; and you are not on my lists. :-) >> >> Tony: Re - "Best way to check is to Google for your literal email >> address" >> Go on.
