A Zen gay atheistic Texan’s perspective

The spam has exploded on my account of late! I’m trying to use my Yahoo! account for any business related stuff more and more, but I think it’s too little too late as I’ve already given out variations of my home address to businesses and it’s leaked out onto the internets.

So, I’ve enabled something called BoxTrapper on my e-mail. Until your address has been whitelisted, every e-mail to me gets bounced back and has to be manually confirmed before I’ll receive it. (I have a queue as well which I’ll be monitoring occasionally). I did already add everyone in my address book. If you get an auto-reply, it is NOT a bounce, just a one step confirmation (and you only have to do it one time). I’ll see how it works out!
