"All your posts are now going to a secret box on AOL."
Well, that would explain the recent up-tick in spam lately.
WTF?
I second that. Since this 'tag' thing started, the unwanted mail
getting through my ISP spam filter has gone up 500%.
... and for whatever reason, it appears to be weighted to spam
coming from Asia, as a third of it is in Asian fonts.
I have no way to verify it has anything to do with AOL and in
truth, I had thought it was related to the recent ATT merger with
SBC.
Curously, all the mail getting through my ISP spam filter seems to
be 'single addressee' rather than bulk mail (many listed
addressees) but this could be a relic of being done by some 'bot,
which may have infected the AOL box, who knows? ... the
spam-mongers probably know by now that single-addressee has a
better chance of getting through the type of spam filter used by
ATT/Yahoo.
