Spam-bombed!

Sep 17, 2007 08:06

In the past hour, I've received 112 e-mails with the subject line "{Spam?} **Message you sent blocked by our bulk email filter**".

A HUNDRED AND TWELVE. I usually receive maybe 5-10 personal e-mails per week. (I have e-mail anxiety issues, so I barely use it.) Yahoo's spam filter works pretty well overall, so I'm not sure how these got through. And in the five minutes since I started this post, I've received thirteen more.

Any idea what the heck is happening? Did some jerk sub me to a spam list? And how the heck do I get rid of it? GAH.

ETA: I'm switching over to Gmail for the time being, since the spam keeps coming and coming. If you already know my Yahoo e-mail address, it's the same thing @gmail.com.
