It was rhetorical, to the extent that I did not expect a good
technical answer from a first level. I wanted to check what the
official statement was no SPAM filtering.
The only tool that the guy suggested is getting into webmail and
marking those e-mails as SPAM, which their system may or may not do
something about.
Can you elaborate on how a guy (spammer) manages to place a Rolex
SPAM in my mail box, without having my address visible. Does he
actually have my address and disguise it, or is the same SPAM going
into ALL Comcast e-mail boxes?
To be honest, I'm not flooded with SPAM. Get maybe 10 (currently
Rolex and some Viagra) spams a day. Some friends are doing a lot
worse with quite explicit sex adds.
