Default Clueless Merchants

On a slightly related topic.. I havn't been in this group long.. but
It is the first group I have ever posted to on this email addy...

Now I get upwards of 20 spams a day.. used to get maybe one a
week... sigh shoulda setup my email address differant like it is
now to begin with....


It's not the fault of this group. ANY place you publically post your
un-cyphered e-mail address will probably be mined.


I wholeheartedly agree.. I wasn't blaming the group... just myself



I have a particular address I use for registering with web pages. It gets *loaded*
with spam. I have others which I keep completely private. These addresses
have both gotten at least one spam email, probably from a spam engine that
combines various and sundry initials to 'surname@[some_isp].'


yeah, i have a yahoo address I use alot too.... my current address
is not that old so it was rare to get spam. A buddy of mine has a
yahoo address he has had for 4 years. he gets 20-30 spams a day....
