The Daily Ping

Spam Check!

A while back, Ryan provided a spam update. Before that, he decided to swing with us. Nevertheless, spam remains a very serious issue. Serious!

My question to you is, how much of this crap are you getting?

I’m fortunate enough to have SpamAssassin (God’s gift to email) thanks to my webhost, but there are still a good 80-100 messages of junk I receive daily. On weekends, it’s even more. I think, on average, 2-3 fall through SpamAssassin’s cracks – upsetting my otherwise pristine inbox.

Isn’t it sad, though, that there’s so much of it out there and so little has been done about it?

What is this then?

The Daily Ping is the web's finest compendium of toilet information and Oreo™® research. Too much? Okay, okay, it's a daily opinion column written by two friends. Did we mention we've been doing this for over ten years? Tell me more!
