scott,
one thing that has stemmed the tide for me is to start putting your
email address on all your web posts as a java encoded text (there
are several schemes out there to do this) instead of straight html.
while this wont get rid of things immediately, it has slowed the
tide a lot for me and many clients over the last couple of years
since i started doing it. spam lists are constantly being generated
by spiders all the time looking for emails in html, so it does help
prevent you getting on new ones. im sure there are some spammers out
there that are now using bots to run the java scripts to see if they
get any email addresses back, but thats not as easy.
its never ending war... you might also try and forward your email
over to a hosting account that has a spam filter on it.
My ISP has installed a spam filter called "Vanquish" that works,
well... perfectly.
Vanquish doesn't attempt to filter by content, subject line or IP.
Instead,legitimate senders not on my "allow" list get directed to a
website where they have to type some graphic characters into a field.
They only have to do it once. After that, they go on the allow list,
unless I remove them. At first, I worried that legitimate senders
would be put off. I've not heard a single complaint. The only comment
has been, "Hey, where can I get this?"
My outgoing email gets added to my allow list. Bonded senders are
also allowed, unless I exclude them.
Highly recommended.
Tim
