.

About that spam, my main business email address gets around 5,000 spam mails/day (of which, all but a dozen-ish make it through thanks to SpamAssasian).

Of that ~5,000, 90% are from Asia(about half are even in Chinese), 5% or so are from the US, and the other 5% are from Europe.

Now, strangely, 90% of the viruses I get in my email are from Europe, and the other 10% are a mix from US and China.

I have many many email accounts, and my main one isnt special by any means, those spam numbers are about the same on all of them from where the spam and viruses come from.

I wish ISPs offered overseas email/spam filtering. Prodigy has this back in the day and I used it because I never received OS email but I don't know of any ISP offering it now. For users not expecting OS email it was great for controlling spam.
