A month? Ha. I get maybe twenty-fourty per day. Just wait. You'll get
developed. Enjoy the peace while you have it.

Last year, I collected all my spam for a month. It was about 700 messages. I
sorted these into categories (pyramid schemes, sex ads, voodoo, etc.) I was
trying to see if there were some way of finding common traits so that I
could block spam.

Spamsters are good: they change the email address every time, they change
the headings everytime. The result of my study of spam: there's no common
traits. There's nothing one can do to keep them out.

Maybe is answer isn't blocking out, but blocking in. Perhaps one could block
out EVERYTHING, and only allow in those messages from friends, colleages,
and subscribed mailing lists. But one would still have to look through the
garbage to see if there are emails from people who are legitimately trying
to contact one.
