[QUOTE]Originally posted by MinutiaeMan: [QB] This is something that I haven't exactly close paid attention to until recently... I've always been getting spam in my e-mail in boxes, since I first put up my own website with dedicated e-mail address posted on the web two and a half years ago. I've used that address as my general-purpose address, my "spam magnet" if you will. I also use the built-in mail filters for OS X's Mail.app, which have gotten very good at figuring out which messages are spam. However, until recently I wasn't confident enough in it concerning false positives to let the spam go without checking each message. Recently, I've told the automatic filtering to keep all spam out of my site completely, so rather than checking new messages (spam and otherwise) as they come in, I can shunt the spam off and scan the list every few days instead. Since the spam has had the opportunity to collect in my junk box now, I'm getting a sense of just how much crap I'm getting -- 100+ messages a week. I'm curious about what kind of volumes of spam other people here are getting... especially people with other personal websites -- Star Trek stuff, of course. I know that I'm not one of the hardest-hit in spam by any means, but I'm still curious about some real life figures... [/QB][/QUOTE]
