patrik Posted July 22, 2001 Share Posted July 22, 2001 I'm having a hell of a time with spammers recently. I made the mistake of adding a mailto: link with my address and now I get crap from every corner of the internet. The worst site is "intergal.com" I get up to four messages from that site per day. Suggestions? Ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
configure Veteran Posted July 22, 2001 Veteran Share Posted July 22, 2001 If you're using something like Hotmail, or MOE, you can block the sender :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrik Posted July 23, 2001 Author Share Posted July 23, 2001 No, i use Outlook with a Yahoo POP3 account and Yahoo doesn't see through fake email headers so I can't block the address. I've set up nearly 13 filters so far with an additional 5 in Outlook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redmak Administrators Posted July 23, 2001 Administrators Share Posted July 23, 2001 Well my main spam concern is Hotmail although their spam blocker should be better now. I use Poco for an email client which has an excelent intelligent spam blocker (nothing has passed it yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5itus Posted July 25, 2001 Share Posted July 25, 2001 If your mailto is on your homepage, you could try the Anti-Spam Script Maker from: http://assmaker.mybravenet.com/ It should disguise mailto's so robots and spamengines won't pick them up. Won't help your current predicament, but might aid in the future, and a penny saved gets you a penny closer to buying that Ferrari... 5itus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedBadger Posted August 7, 2001 Share Posted August 7, 2001 I get a ton of spam myself. I ended up having to use one of those spam killer programs. I tried several so far, and the one I like best is called SpamKiller (www.spamkiller.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
