Oh web cam emails how I will miss you
My old friends
Cialis, Viagra, Propecia, make money now, low interest mortgages and you too Amber with the webcam, we will have to meet another day.
You see my friends, I have a new sidekick now – its name is MailFrontier and since I started it yesterday afternoon I have been feeling rather lonely.
MailFrontier blocks spam. I’d been meaning to get one since I started getting more spam emails a day than Canada has pine trees. When I took a few days off a couple weeks ago and came back to find 700 messages in my inbox I knew it was soon to come.
I thought about installing a JavaScript on all my email address popup boxes on my sites to prevent screen scraping but this would only slow the flow of new spammers – not stop the penis enlargers and 3.14% financing people who hound net citizens 24/7 with more tenacity than the FCC on a democrat radio show host. I also worried it might exclude legitimate people who did want to contact me.
I was even tempted a time or two to click on the “stop spam now” emails – NOT!
Then I read on CNet about MailFrontier – the geeks at CNet said it’s the best spam blocker and they didn’t steer me wrong with my new Sony Handicam so I figured I’d give it a shot.
The results: great. Its everything CNet says and more.
The unexpected result: it seems so lonely - I realized I was logging in 10 times a day, basically to delete junk mail and filter the much smaller number of actual messages. Now I go in and only see real emails from people I want. I have to ask; “Is this all the mail I have?”
I keep checking the blocked spam emails thinking that somehow MailFrontier has blocked a good one – they haven’t yet.
I don’t know what I will do without you Cialis, Propecia and Amber web cam but all this free time I have will give me more time to enjoy the $25,000,000 I am getting from my friend in Nigeria who contacted me before I had MailFrontier.
