I barely have any spam in my inbox, even though my e-mail addy is all over the internet.
The solution is blocking complete domains

Hotmail r0cks!

Bloomers III · 15 Dec 2002, 13:30

Random porn with stuff like "Tight teen ****" or "Watch me touch myself off" as the subjects.

SepH · 15 Dec 2002, 14:07

"horny teen sluts on the farm" and the likes (watch me cum live on camera and stuff) DID very well on my inbox :-/

Today, Snowhite was turning 18. The 7 Dwarfs always where very educated and
polite with Snowhite. When they go out work at mornign, they promissed a 
*huge* surprise. Snowhite was anxious. Suddlently, the door open, and the Seven
Dwarfs enter..

sexy virgin.scr

etc.. Which means some git has me in their address book and doesn't realise they've got a virus. After recieving its variations for the past 2 years or so it's getting a little irritating now

In my GMX account ... don't really know, after all it IS purely a spam bait.

For my private mail address, the current award goes to an advertisment mail for an email advertising (read: spamming) script called HiMailer, heh.

The amount of spam i recieve has however greatly decreased ever since the webmaster@domain mail account "stores" its mail in /devl/null ...

I dun remember who it was, but I once got 900 porn mails in one day and 800 the next :s

That's the thing, I've got absolutely no idea who it is. I don't keep an address book and I rarely email anyone from the account. At best I can assume it was someone who emailed me years ago when I was running the 'Planetarion Addicts' column. However considering I received litterally hundreds of emails from different people I've got little chance of narrowing it down to any one person.

SpamAssassin is your friend

I'd say it blocks about 95% of all spam sent to me, and catches about 1% of genuine mail. So I just read the log once a week (a 5 min job).

I've had the same address since 1997 so I get a LOT of spam

Of course, it all goes horribly wrong if you do:

paulm@totem:~$ rm procmail-log

Instead of:

paulm@totem:~$ joe procmail-log

Like I just did

M.

p.s. freevirtual.org, virtualconnect.org and freevirtualconnect.org are the prime spammers atm... so I reported them to ORBS :-)
