Mike Ertel is a spammer

From the spam I received, it looks like this idiot is running for a
political seat in a county I don't live it. Since I can't vote against
him in the election, I'd suggest anyone in Seminole County, FL do so.

According to a survey done by Yahoo! Mail, "20 percent of U.S. residents admit buying products from spam purveyors". Idiots.

[As seen on SPAM-L. Not my post, but I do like the sentiment.]

Ah, yes. Yet another ad hominem attack from yet another member of the "Kill 'em all and let God sort 'em out later" crowd. That's what I love about this place.

I'd like to raise my hand and note that I am NOT part of the "Kill 'emall and let God sort 'em out later" crowd.I don't see any point in sorting them.

email defense--you need it

The last few weeks have seen anywhere from a slight to a dramatic upturn in spam depending on where you sit. Thanks to Tucows, my company (Adaptive Hosting Solutions) was able to launch our Email Defense service this week. Basically, it is a branded version of the MXLogic product.

I love it so far. It gives domain admins control over the filtering and quarantining settings and also lets end users easily view their quarantine and manage their accept/deny lists from the daily quarantine report.

The geek part of me hates charging for this, but the businessman part of me understands the costs involved in the technology. I guess I feel better that this is still cheaper and easier than using a desktop antivirus/antispam solution.
