sHARD>> Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 As of right now, I have 12,091 e-mails in my Gmail spam box (in case you don't know, Gmail deletes e-mail older than 30 days from the spam box). That's one spam mail every 4 minutes! Do I win? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elrithranduil Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 hahah thats an awful lot. My record is about 50 in 24 hours luckily I hardly ever find a real spam message in my inbox. Long live gmail. (Dont you people just want to torture the people that make spam do they really think we are going to buy rolexes or viagra via some untrusty spam mail, I really dont see that people buy that {censored} so why do they make the stupid things) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mix86 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I get about one message an hour I'd say so about 24 a day. Lots of it is bounces due to spammers forging the return address as mine :\ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gameguy132 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 i get about 80 a day so if i saved up like sHARD>> then i would have... 2400, ahhh you win.

trav1085 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 I get about 40 a day on my Gmail. Hardly ever get one in the Inbox. I check my old Yahoo account every 2 or 3 days, and get about 70-130+ spam (as it's ALL spam on that account) everytime. I don't collect it though. This should become a contest, who can collect the most spam in their Spambox by 2007 (jan 1st) wins. That's less than 30 days for Gmail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 What about sharing some Gmail Filters recipes for filtering SPAM? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phor2zero Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 I purchased my .name email address (my real name) 3 years ago. Even after having it disabled for two years, I'm still getting 75 to 100 spam a day on it. I thought the .name thing was pretty cool, apparantly spammers think so too, cause they can autogenerate email addresses to spam to pretty easily. I'm now using gmail to filter my .name address. Gmail's spam filter is pretty good so far (less than a week) and I'm hoping I don't miss any legitimate emails in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sHARD>> Posted December 14, 2006 Author Share Posted December 14, 2006 I think a contributing reason to the fact that I just recently broke 12,500 is the fact that 8 accounts (mostly old ones) are pointing to the same place. And some of them get a lot of spam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McSkywalker Posted December 14, 2006 Share Posted December 14, 2006 I've set up my outlook express to the gmail pop3 and my mail.app to aim's imap so I never see spam on those. It's a bit different about my hotmail an yahoo addresses but I ocassionally check them. It's safe for me to say that I don't suffer from spam.
