My main email address is a Demon internet account. I've kept the same domain name since I joined. Husi used to run at the end of the static IP I get off them.
Even with Demon using Brightmail to filter spam, I'm still getting upwards of 300 spams a day. The other day I logged on and got 500. 200 in thunderbird's junk mail box, 300 in my inbox. So, if you sent me an email the other day and I've not replied, it's because it got deleted by accident. My gmail account gets nearly 700 spams a day. Most of them end up in the spam box, but I can't check that for false positives. Would you? Thunderbird can't cope with all my spam. Once upon a time, I used to fuss around and have spam assasin running on a Linux box which picked up all my email. I don't have a spare machine to do that with anymore. Setting up stuff like that used to interest me, but I've got better things to do with my spare time now. So, if you've ever sent me an email which you were expecting a response to and didn't get one. Now you know why. My imperfect mental spam filter will have deleted it. Also, Thunderbird sucks at times as well. Don't change the fucking email list while I'm looking at it. I don't know if you're just about to download new email. Don't stick a new message under my mouse as my finger is clicking the spam icon. That's happened more times than I care to remember. It seriously needs an undo feature. Any suggestions? How do you cope with spam?
