Spam, spam, spam, spam sapm and spam.
« on: February 17, 2017, 01:54:47 PM »
After years of my spam filters working reasonably well, I'm suddenly inundated with stuff that looks easily recognizable. Old school crap like reams of hidden text and leading with .PNG or .JPG pics instead of text. Have the filters gotten stupider, or is something else afoot. I'm not seeing anything remarkably clever.

I gave up years ago and went with Gmail. I'm sure they track everything - the spam filters are fantastic.

I still have a Hotmail email account so I have to go through Outlook.com to get my Hotmail emails. However, I don't get very much spam. Lately I have because Yahoo got hacked a while back and this is how the spamsters got my email address. I get about 5 spam (junk) emails per week which isn't too bad and they all arrive in my Junk folder. So Microsoft is, and I say this grudgingly, doing a good job at keeping spam out of my Inbox folder.

Nothing to do with your spam filter..but traveling to London for the reunion of Monty Python in O2 was sooo worth it.
