What you see on your computer, and what is the state of the internet as a whole may be two different things.
Also, how do you determine the source of your spam? Source email addresses can be faked, but also it is common practice to add a few spoofed header lines to prevent easy manual determination and reporting of the source of spam.
When you analyze the email headers, you need to check the IP addresses to ensure that they are really email relays, and that the time stamps make sense.
If you do that, and if you have a typical variety of spam, you'll find that more than half of your spam comes from US locations.

If you want to see where you spam comes from, and report the computer being used as either the spam source or as an open mail relay, you can do this for free at »www.spamcop.net (.net, the .com is something else).
You have to register, but they don't spam you.
This said, hopefully the Chinese police state will shut down its spammers with at least as much energy and resources as it devotes to shutting down legitimate political and religious descent.

What's reported and what's reality are two different things...
Most of my spam comes from China, the next most from europe (don't distinguish by country), then tied with the US and Australia. This is by IP address registrations, not the from address. |
