Huh? Like most, I use a spam filter with me writing the rules. So, since I pack all that crap up and send it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] daily, scanning it for false hits first, I just went thru the collection since about 22:00 last night. One piece of spam actually got thru the amanda.org server in 11 hours. I'm on one mailing list thats probably 75% spam as its been there since before forever was defined. I filter it down to 2 or 3 a day that get thru to that folder. Heck, I'd bet that with your phone number in your sig, the telemarketers are banging your ringers 10x what they're banging mine. In other words, set up a filter rule if it bothers you to get 2 spams a day from a list. In the real world, this list is about as quiet spamwise as any of the other 11 I'm subscribed to. >> -----Original Message----- >> From: Angel GrefurT [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] >> Sent: Sunday, September 08, 2002 6:56 AM >> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> Subject: hi >> >> >> http://lol.to/bbs.php?bbs=offspring >> Username: LIZA-ROOM-008 >> Password: XF459J -- Cheers, Gene AMD K6-III@500mhz 320M Athlon1600XP@1400mhz 512M 99.14% setiathome rank, not too shabby for a WV hillbilly
