So we can all use one of those addresses as our reply to address for the benefit of the harvesting bots?

Although that might be construed as identity theft - perhaps better to use it as a cc on postings.

FWIW ~ 95% of my email is now spam. Most of it US originated.

Hmmmm!

About 20% of my incoming is spam, but Spamnix gets 99% of it straight to trash, with no false positives.

Most of mine seems to come from Brazil, China or Korea, even though it's often an American advertiser.

I've been following the SpamCop newsgroup for awhile (their own server, so it takes an additional instance of Agent), and I'm considering funneling my E-mail thru them since they toss based on their blacklist before you even see it.

I use Timo Salmi's password filter (modified a lot), 100% efficient:

It's a baby colaboration filter. Less manual / more comfortable colaboration filters can be built, but we need more, ugh, colaboration.

In the late 60s I worked in S.F. for two years on a rotational assignment. I worked in the L.A area six months last year, then went back for a week in S.F.

I completely enjoyed all of it. IMHO the "popular" opinions of California are silly; probably intended to keep the dull people away.

Still, I wouldn't permanently give-up my Oregon home for it...... At least not yet.

That would be over 5K on a half million dollar house in the Bay Area (CA). The problem being is many of the homes are much more than that.....and on the beach a 2 bedroom shack might bring a million and a half.....a nice 15K a year or so!...And they want to raise the taxes....no wonder folks are running to AZ and Nevada!
