This is very
off topic, but anyway: Write a letter to the government.
Writing to *my* government isn't likely to do much good against most spam,
which tends to originate from US sites. All the UK ISPs I know of have an
anti-spam policy anyway.
You're right, but still, if the UK could pass a law to
make spam illegal, it
would at least cause ripples to the US and every where else in the world.
Not often a good idea, since the consensus seems to be
that responses
merely confirm that the address they used is (still) valid.
Four letter words. They
do wonders with spammers.
I hadn't thought about the free email account idea,
but I'm not sure I want
yet another account.
Sorry... I've only got two right now. And usually, I have
one, but I had to
get one at Geocities as it's not ISP-dependant, and I'm moving to Guyana, so
during travel, I'll be suffeirng withdrawel from the Internet.
Does anyone have a 386 portable somewhere stateside that I could buy?
Ciao,
