RE: FN-FORUM Spammed

date posted 9th January 2001 16:19

I use a Web mail account called Screwed.every1.net which has quite good
filters for bulk mail you can put everything strait into the trash folder
and forget about it, and they periodically delete the mail for you. Its much
better than using a bogus e-mail address, because doing it that way you may
just end up sending mail to someone else, and a lot of forms will verify the
e-mail address you enter.

all I need now is some kind of bot, with multiple identities to visit free
lottery sites and send me the winnings so I never need to look at another
advert again.
