zwelgen 0 Posted December 24, 2002 Share Posted December 24, 2002 I was checking my email yesterday and the usual junk and then a mate checked his yahoo account and had some beauties in there "worlds smallest radio controlled motorbike" I think took the cake! FYI check your options in your email address. Apparently hotmail changed some stuff a while back and if youve had youre email acct a while chances are theres a box checked that you dont want. Go into options and then check under my profile. But seriously people must click on the penis enlargement etc stuff or they wouldnt send it. WHO THE HELL ARE THESE KNUCKLEHEADS??!!

damian 0 Posted December 26, 2002 Share Posted December 26, 2002 I am both victim and culprit. All day at work I get these 'great ideas' so i email them home to myself. On a good day I can come home to an inbox of 15 emails each containing a really stupid idea that doesn't make any sense. Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted December 26, 2002 Share Posted December 26, 2002 I do that too, maybe not 15 mails but mailing myself. Link to post Share on other sites

oblivion 5 Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 This morning I go 21 emails (to the same email address) with the subject line "Annoyed with getting spam mail?" Link to post Share on other sites
nzlegend 1 Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 http://www.mailwasher.net/ this is an AWESOME free spamkiller, it really works! A NZ guy developed it and boy its good! it bounces mail back to the sender so it looks like your account doesnt exist, so invariably the spammers remove you from their mailing lists. Download it and try it! Honestly its the bomb!! Link to post Share on other sites
RayInJapan 0 Posted March 18, 2003 Share Posted March 18, 2003 I never got junk mail on my home email until I made the mistake of buying something on line from a snowboarding company and giving them my email address. My hotmail account on the other hand gets 50 a day it seems... Link to post Share on other sites
frannyo 2 Posted April 20, 2003 Share Posted April 20, 2003 Mailwasher highly recommended. If you have more than 1 account, pay $25 and you can use the full version on all your accounts. Link to post Share on other sites

It has changed, it used to be totally free to use on a all your accounts, the version I downloaded works that way, it must have changed. Next time I am home in NZ I will slide a few dolleros the way of the creator for a wonderful product! Link to post Share on other sites
Karnidge 2 Posted April 21, 2003 Share Posted April 21, 2003 The 1 account version is still free. Link to post Share on other sites

Ocean11 0 Posted April 28, 2003 Share Posted April 28, 2003 I'm trying out MailWasher at the moment. Judgement deferred for the moment. Link to post Share on other sites
Wizz 11 Posted April 28, 2003 Share Posted April 28, 2003 Junk still comes, you can just see it and delete quickly without having to download it all. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted April 28, 2003 Share Posted April 28, 2003 Which is pretty much the same as what happens with your normal email client (the downloading part only takes seconds with broadband). So unless the spam stops coming and you can stop using MailWasher, there isn't a great deal of point to it. Link to post Share on other sites
enderzero 0 Posted April 28, 2003 Share Posted April 28, 2003 I have been getting a lot of junk c-mail lately. Maybe one every couple days (I guess not really a lot). Any other AU folks get a lot? Link to post Share on other sites
