So cool
Ha! Ha! I am on the Intarweb!

As an addendum to yesterday's post, I noticed this morning that the spam filter I installed on my new server actually works. Not only has it cut down the spam to a mere trickle (I was getting 2000+ pieces a day at the old Web host; this morning I had five), but it clearly marks phishing attempts, and alters them so that they won't display unless you explicitly click on a link (this is great, since if an email displays images, it can do so in a fashion that lets the spammer/phisher know they found a valid email address, and you'll never get rid of them).

Why, oh why, didn't I do this sooner? I used to dread opening my mailbox.
