Hooray, no spam here!

no spam hereI just deleted the 4,000+ emails from my gmail Spam folder. I’m going to check how many spam I get around the same time every day and note it here.

You’re welcome.

(I’ll probably forget to do it after the second day.)

Day 1 (Sept 20): 186 spam in about 24 hours. At that rate I’ll have over 5000 spam in a month.

Day 2 (Sept 21): 354 spam. That’s about what I predicted. Thus ends this fascinating experiment.

    Who wouldn’t!

    I have over 10,000 spam a month now. Christ. I’d have to get a new email address every month if gmail’s spam detector didn’t work so well.

  8. Phillip says:

    I don’t get any SPAM. Not even in the Bulk/Spam folder. I’m very proud of that.
