Sam,

I have no axact figures.  My ISP just blocks, and dumps the box
every so many emails....I almost never go look in it.  Whenever I
do, it always has between 10-20, or more.  I don't know how often
they dump, but whether I dump, or just leave it, there is always
a bunch.  That is on just ONE of my email accounts...albeit the
one that collects the most spam.

...later...I just went and checked that account...it has only 12
spam in it...and they have kept them since froday night.  That is
a very low count for that spambox...and that doesn't include the
four that slipped thru (it isn't infallible) yesterday.  Counting
all my email accounts, I'm getting well over 20 per day.  But most
of them are blocked.  BTW my ISP provides us with POSTINI, which is
a super service, as far as I'm concerned.

RE: Glenn Gilbreath...yes...I also have a yahoo account, and have
friends on yahoo, and hotmail...the DOMAIN is blocked, then I "allow"
specific users to sneak thru.......<g g g g>

RE:  GlennMcC....I also have .ru blocked...but...I could let Mithgol's
emails thru, on an individual user basis, or on a mail-list basis.

.....gregy
