The spammer who drowns, or perhaps even Gene's wife. Oops. I shouldn't have said that one, as she might come over here and smack me round the back of the head for inferring such terrible things. Joking aside, the spamming is getting out of hand. Recently I saw that 64% of e-mail traffic was spam. I've recently installed Bogofilter on my machine, which filters the incoming mail to Kmail. I'm still building up the database at the moment, which has about 650 Spam, and NonSpam in it. I think I'll call a halt to updating it when it reaches 1000, apart from the e-mails that end up in the Unsure box. I have to glance at the stuff thats turning up in the Spam box, just to make sure it's not legit e-mail (none so far). I'm 57, and am just sickened with this stuff telling you that you need an extension to a certain part of your anatomy. The fact that they're still sending this stuff out, seems to indicate that they're getting a response from these e-mails. Does that mean that the planet is full of sex maniacs? Perhaps I'm just getting a bit old, and don't understand how younger folks view such stuff. Joining you in the Old Farts club Gene. Nigel.
