I have to ask: has anybody besides me experienced a marked increase in spam activity this last week or so? I used to get one or two per day to this address, but now it is up to over twenty a day. I do have a good filter that catches 95% of them, but still it loads down my allotted space until I throw them out.
Spam seems pretty steady for me; a few hundred a day, a few dozen a day that make it past the filters and have to be deleted manually. Sometimes nearly a minute of wasted time! This is on an email address that's been used publicly on mailing lists, Usenet, and web sites since...I think it was 1999. -- David Dyer-Bennet, <mailto:dd-b@xxxxxxxx>, <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/> RKBA: <http://www.dd-b.net/carry/> Pics: <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/> Dragaera/Steven Brust: <http://dragaera.info/>
