Hi I don't use catch-all email addresses any more, this cut down drastically the amount of spam I was getting.
For some of the lists I join I also create a temporary email address such [EMAIL PROTECTED] so at least I know where the crap originated. If necessary this means I just stop using a temporary email address altogether. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of MB Software Solutions Sent: 27 September 2006 21:35 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [NF] Spoofed e-mail Joe De Ville wrote: >I have the same problem -- something like 300 /day.
