For the past three weeks my work email box has been deluged with spam
bounces. Not spam, but bounces of spam allegedly sent by me. It's
obnoxious to filter. And I worry that someone thinks my company is
actually sending out these solicitations for Brazilian penis
enlargement pills. I'd guess a few thousand have been sent so far;
interestingly, I haven't gotten a single reply from a human. I guess
everyone ignores spam.
This spambounce storm reminds me of when I was sendsys bombed back in 1993. Back then, a couple thousand unwelcome emails was a real problem. Now it's a typical week. |
