Amount of spam

Those spammers and especially their sponsors better prey that they'll never meet me!!:shadow2:
Because if I'll ever get them to my hands I'll crush their fingers and toes one bone at a time with 2kg "fine-tuning" hammer!
After that same thing with hands and legs and then driving over them with tractor. (or maybe with tractor's cart weighting eleven tons)
Amount of incoming spam has at least tripled in one week!:angryv:
Has anyone noticed same?
Now it would be last change for western countries to force international arrangement for against spammers. (details of minimum penalty won't matter, just it's as painful as possible)
If that won't be done usefullness of e-mail goes fast down to near zero.

I haven't noticed a large increase, i still get a lot, much less since i deleted one of my email accounts.
The spam problem is out of control, and something needs to be done soon.
but the amount of spam, and all the porn websites and other crap out there in general convinces me that the Internet as it is is a failed experiement.
Now that doesn't mean that it can't work, but in its current form, its a bit of a kludge.
I think if you don't repsond, you eventually go on a list as an address that doesn't buy shit...
;)
2 weeks, about 50 junk mails that I've marked as junk (Yes I have the adaptive filter on) and even identicle ones don't get caught...am I missing something simple?!?

They better believe it fast.
I've been using that address over four years.
I guess that in last may spammers were searching new addresses using "random" posting because I got first spams on then (about five spam messages in few weeks)
After that there didn't come nothing until August when it started to come little over ten spam messages per week. After that amount of spam stayed stable until now.
[B]Mozillas junk mail detection seems really poor for me..I must be missing something...

The Thunderbird ones worked brilliantly for me up until a couple of weeks ago, now they hardly seem to be working at all. Apparently the spammers are trying new tactics that get past baysian filters.

0 * 3 = 0
[B]Doh... Exile posted it before I could. [/B][/QUOTE]
My evil plan is a success. :)
[B]If you don't like spam then do you like Micro$oft? [url]http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20040124/ap_on_hi_te/world_forum_gates_4[/url] [/B][/QUOTE]
Four words:
[b]I don't trust Microsoft[/B]
Do you believe that they could develop system to prevent spamming when their OSs and programs are full of holes?
At least this morning there weren't anymore dozen spam messages t oclean, but now one of them had had virus.
(ISP's servers make virus check for every message, incoming and outgoing)
I get loads of spammy stuff too. Is a right pain in the (_I_)!

Yeah, you've got to actually have filters in place for it to work. :D

F**K ALL E-MAIL SPAMMERS PUBLICLY WITH A TO BY FOUR IN THEIR BLOODY ARSE I SAY! That should teach them some f***ing manners. :mad:
- PJH
but alas, NO MESSAGES ARE EVER CAUGHT. :(
the only mail in my junkmail folder is the stuff I moved there.
the adaptive filter never caught anything, so I made a bunch of word filters, and still nothing gets caught.
