Re: gig spam

where are you talking about?
It seems like 80% of the list traffic is "me too" posts (which I absolutely
don't mind, makes it feel there's a bunch of people out there)
The gig spam can't be more than a single digit percentage, if not
fractional.
Gig spam is kind of a 'proof of concept' informational resource. I like
knowing people have actually found workable performing strategies and
concepts. I like the postings of mp3 links and cd releases for the same
reason.
But as I said recently, I think a LD gig spam deserves its own list, for
better visibility. That would solve Matthew's issues as well. I already
voted my $5 for a LD gig spam list :)
btw - I frankly don't understand this 'clogged email' talk all the time.
Are
you folks using AOL or something?? Use simple mail management to filter
and
separate mail. Because of 3-4 high traffic lists like LD, I get 20,000
emails a year, no prob. And programs like SpamAssasin help me see very
little of the reams of spam that float in with the good stuff.
If you can figure out an EDP or a Repeater, email isn't so bad!
