Spam is an insoluble problem I have studied it from 1994 and later systematically in the 488 weekly issues of my newsletter. I remember when Bill Gates still active at Microsoft has promised to liquidate spam in two years. He failed. I am contented with the spam filter of Gmail. But if a message comes from somebody unknown the best is to delete it. The Web is a very dangerous place. Terra incognita- hic hackers and spammers
