Boulder, CO | Re: Lower spam today everyone? Amazingly good point. I usually have at least 15 spam emails everyday. Today there is only 4. Coincidence? | |

| Lower spam today everyone? Apparently, Hotmail had been setting "spamtrap" addresses from May 12 to June 13 as part of the investigation into Scott Richter & OptInRealBig. Millions of email spams were sent by the Richter & Company . . . 8,000 of which were to the spamtrap addresses.
Note: The following is a .pdf file - »www.oag.state.ny.us/press/2003/dec/syn1.pdf
Conjecture
Spammers may now know that Hotmail is "sprinkled" with these spamtrap addresses and may be laying off sending spam to Hotmail in order to avoid hitting these spamtraps and drawing attention to themselves.

2 edits | Re: Lower spam today everyone? I've been reporting every single spam that gets past the Hotmail filters.
My filters are fairly limited to ten rules and YES SPAM has started cutting back.
(Edit) LOL it's span not Spam. | |
