Weekend Musings 20 + 21 August 2005

A lot of people have asked me"Do you have a spam filter?"

The answer is "Yes--and I am happy with it!"

It used to me Spamnet, but they changed the name, for whatever reason, to Cloudmark.

It is a coopeative venture: when I block a spam it is recorded centrally for the benefit of all. My span goes automatically to the folder I choose--in my case to the Deleted folder, so I can get rid of the junk immediately. I know have 496 spams in my Deleted folder. I now check out what I have to sift through the trash to find nuggets for this blog.

My spam filter is about 95% accurate. I hardly every get something marked as spam which is legitimate, and 95% of the spams end up automatically in my Deleted file.

Try it out--www.cloudmark.com. Full disclosure: I have no relationship--economic or otherwise--with Cloudmark other than being a happy customer.
