Default OT. new antispam laws in the US

Following up to Bob Hobden

Any control must be better than now, we get about 100 spam's per day.


Do not disclose your email on usenet[1].
Encrypt your email on webpages.[2]
Then start with a new email with a reputable ISP and you should
only get a few.
1] If you want the code I can post it.

2] Use a dustbin email address here, this stops mail bouncing
back to maliciously forged innocent addresses and haves the junk
flying about.
Some news services like Uni. Berlin insist on a valid address for
this reason.
