My email address was hijacked by some Russian spammers recently. I have been getting several hundred bounced email notifications a day for the last few weeks.
Fortunately my mail server bins them and sends me a list of what it has binned so I can oik them out of the bin if I want to. But I have to scan this list one line at a time for stuff I actually want. This is OK for the odd half-dozen emails, but when they are in their hundreds is is a bit of a bore and a lot of a chore. But one day while scanning the list I saw this:
Not only have I spammed myself, but my spam filter recognised it and binned it - a complete work cycle with no input from me - brilliant!
Now all I need do is extend this principle to work and I can take the rest of my life off.
