If I get 4 or 5 spam out of a couple hundred messages per day I don't
consider it a problem. It's not like they are hard to spot and take
more than about 1 second each to delete. I waste at least 10x more on
useless e-mails from coworkers.

Haha, no, he’s not weird, but I take it he’s gone a little jaded. I
have to admit I struggle with spam a bit myself. I delete about 4-5
emails a day that are spam that get past our filter.

I recently sent someone I know an email about catching up and got
busy afterwards and so didn’t respond very promptly, and then got
the following:

Automated form touch letters. Nice, Dustin.
I'm spam listing your domain to this address.
You can contact me via another technology, if you actually want to
interact.

It took me a few days to get what he meant, and now that I do I
wonder if spam has really made Internet users this jaded? More
broadly put, has spam really killed email?
