result is that email is crippled as a method of reaching new people
since nearly everyone automatically kills all messages from unknown
addresses. People like you can do the same thing to n/gs.


Actually you CAN do something about your email spam problems. One good
place to list, which will clear out your post office box so YOU can use it
is:
http://www.junkbusters.com/
I've been listed on junkbusters for years. It's a legit free service run
by someone who got fed up with being inundated, too. Fill out his online
forms and print out the EXACT messages each of the snailmail spammers want
to see to get you off their lists. MAIL THEM. They fold into their own
envelopes last time I did it. This also puts you automatically on every DO
NOT SPAM database on all the mass mailers' computers. Junkbusters is
connected to all of them. I got my snailmail box down to maybe 5 spams a
week! I call each of those that don't get the message to see how much time
I can suck up costing their companies as much money as possible. After
they want my credit card number, I say, "Do you get the idea now that I'm
not going to buy anything and am trying to waste your time? Why not just
take me off the lists and databases and I'll stop calling after every one
of your useless mailings." It works, too!

Of course, you know to be on all the DO NOT CALL lists, I hope. I got rid
of the constant unsolicited phone calls the day I told Bell$outh to pull
their wires off my house. Noone needs a home phone any more. It's a
Federal Offense to call my cellular phone from some boiler room. I fill
out those forms with the FTC on the 2nd phone call. Ask AT&T. They kept
calling to sell me long distance phone service on my cellular phone with
free LD to anywhere in the country. I signed up four times before they got
the message....stupid asses....(c;
