hello,

i am trying reduce the amount of spam i receive as it's taking longer to bounce the rubbish than it is to read the genuine mail. I have adulterated my email address on the usenet groups I post on, and was wondering if posting here with a valid email address in your profile also causes mass influx of junk to your mailbox. Any thoughts?

Never had any spam problems with any of my email addresses and have been posting on here for just over two and a half years.

cheers - i thought it was more likely to originate from usenet, but i didn't want to fix one and leave another still vunerable.

I've received an email advertising the services of a Subaru specialist as a direct result of posting on sn. However it's only happened the once and can hardly be classed as a problem.

I get the odd 419 email..... I'm assuming that someone who has conversed with me via my SN email address (its the only board I use it for) has been infected with some virus or another.

I'm getting 50+ junk mails a day atm, which is why it has become tiresome, as it takes a few minutes just to bounce them off the server without reading. I would not class one or two as a problem.

It annoys the hell out of me when Scoobynetters find out what I do, then send me 'company introduction' emails! [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img]

If I wanted a company that could supply this or that, then I would ask for it!!!
