I got tired of spam and fraud emails hitting my business inbox with zero consequences for the senders.

So I built a tool that fights back — legally.
                                                                                                            
  How it works:                                             

  1. Export the spam email as an .eml file (Gmail: 3 dots → "Download message")                             
  2. Upload it to the site
  3. The tool traces the email back through every server it touched, identifies the hosting providers, and  
  gives you pre-written abuse reports with the exact email addresses to send them to                        
                                                                                                            
  What it actually does behind the scenes:                                                                  
                                                            
  - Parses the email headers to extract originating IP addresses                                            
  - Runs WHOIS lookups to identify the hosting company and domain registrar
  - Pulls GeoIP data so you can see where the servers are located                                           
  - Finds the official abuse contact emails (every host is legally required to have one)                    
  - Generates properly formatted abuse reports — you just copy, paste, and send                             
                                                                                                            
  Why this works:                                                                                           
                                                                                                            
  Hosting providers and domain registrars are required by ICANN and local law to act on abuse reports. When 
  they get one, they investigate and typically suspend the spammer's account within 24-72 hours. This is the
   same mechanism that enterprise spam services like SpamCop use.                                           
                                                            
  Is it safe?                                                                                               
  
  The tool only reads plain text email headers. It never opens attachments, renders HTML, clicks links, or  
  downloads anything from the spammer's servers. The .eml file is just a text file.
                                                                                                            
  Link: https://spam-fighter.vercel.app                                                                     
  
  It's completely free and I have no plans to monetize it. If it helps even one person get a scammer shut   
  down, it was worth building.

    • App, useful & Teams shouldn't be used in the same sentence.
    • New Outlook for Windows and Web is getting a simple but very useful email feature by Sayan Sen Recently Microsoft put up a blog post highlighting not one, not two, but 15 total reasons why it feels you should switch to New Outlook already. If that was not enough, the company is bringing another new feature soon that could finally compel you to switch over to the new app. According to a recent update on the Microsoft 365 roadmap, the tech giant is making changes to how message sorting works when users choose criteria besides the traditional options of From, Subject, or Date Received. The idea is to provide better options for the attribute being used for sorting and make it easier to understand why messages appear in a particular order. For those unfamiliar Outlook already allows users to sort emails using a variety of fields including sender, category, importance, subject, and message size. Users can access these options through the Filter menu in Outlook for Windows and Outlook on the web. With the upcoming change, whenever users sort by a field other than From, Subject, or Date Received, Outlook will automatically display an additional column showing the value being used for the sort. For example, if messages are sorted by Size, a Size column will appear in the message list, allowing users to immediately see the data that determines the ordering of emails. Microsoft believes this should make sorting behavior simpler and reduce the need to manually adjust views or inspect individual messages. Support for sorting by Flag Due Date is also coming and should be especially be helpful for users who rely on email flags to manage follow-up tasks and deadlines. The feature is listed under Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 564803 and is expected to reach general availability beginning later this month itself (June 2026). You can find the entry here. As always though, users should keep in mind that roadmap timelines can change and rollout schedules may occasionally be adjusted by Microsoft. Outlook for Web is also set to receive this feature.
    • That is true. but the liability side of my balance sheet is clean and has been for decades.  Nobody comes a knocking,  calling or writing harassing me for the money i owe them.😎👍  Haven't dealt with "a money changer" in decades and like Jesus it was in Jerusalem.  Don't have much money, but have even less stress in my life.👍👍     P.S.  Sorry, can't walk on water or change it to wine,  
    • Maybe ? DLSS Swapper (can swap the DLSS/FSR/XeSS versions) as long as the game (typically online/competitive) doesn't checks for file tampering. You can try different version(s) or update if not the current version of the FSR. https://github.com/beeradmoore/dlss-swapper
