 Vchat20Landing is the REAL challengePremium join:2003-09-16 Columbus, OH | strange emails and spam, oh my first off, i dont use my isp's email. probably because weve switched our isp's about 5 times in the past couple months. but ive been using a hotmail account as my main account for the past couple years now and have not had a single problem. as a matter of fact, the delay time is probably in the range of a few seconds for 99.9% of the time. and as far as spam is concerned, i just set the spam filtering on extreme where everything goes to my junk mail box unless is say otherwise. if anything i see the lost email problem being common user error. with people making strange usernames nowadays with geek talk (numbers in place of letters), its not hard to get the email address wrong. the part about delayed email i just blame on spam and any of the latest virii that cause spam. i mean, in the time frame of a single day, theres got to be anywhere from a couple billion to a couple trillion at the least spam emails that filter all across the net. |
