With millions of other subscribers world-wide, I am receiving as many as 250

99 perecent of this attrocious rubbish originates in the United States of
America, the land of the free.

Can't you get Bush to do something about it?

I can do no better than speed-read the subject lines and dump everything
unless the subject matter is OBVIOUSLY something of interst to me.

SWR or Old Wives is OK

Female or male teenagers at my time of life are not.

Isn't Spam just plain a pain.. our Server here use a company named
Postini (do a google search) contact your Local server and tell them
you would like this feature to be added.. Postini filters all my
incoming mail and stops 98 percent of the spam before it's downloaded
to my computer. It also has Virus checking so the 200 or so viruses
i've been getting each week have been stopped before it's downloaded
on my machines. It would be a worthwhile investment even if I had to
pay a little extra for the service. Instead of looking through tons
of email to determine what is spam, I just go to the message center
and look a the list of blocked headers and tell it to deliver only the
ones I want .. or I can read the message there first.

Check it out.

Also most of the spam I'm receiving here seems to originate from China
or the far east. But most of the viruses unfortunately are coming
(mostlikely unknown to the actual person,) from other hams in the U.S.
who just won't keep their machines virus programs updated. I long ago
stopped reporting them cause it did no good and just used up too much
of my time.. Just block them now..

Cheers ,
73 Dave
