"You have 234 New Emails in your Hotmail box"


That's what MSN said when I opened MSN messenger...


All of them are from YOUR GUIDE...the subject line is "Your Product To Over 300 Million23018 "...
When I delete one... more try to come in.

Soooooooooooo I guess what I'm going to have to do is get me a new email addy.

If you are on my MSN messenger.. or want to add me to yours.. I'll post my new email addy here as soon as I get it.

well so much for anti-spamming technologies

234 e-mails! Holly cow. But, when was the last time you checked your e-mail?

 

[modest mouse]

Can you block the addy, then go about deleting them?

Yahoo's method of dealing with SPAM is far superior and they allow you to go over 6 MB or leave your account dormant without discontinuing service.

Less than 2 hours before posting this thread.

I check it often.

233 of those 234 emails were from the same people. I blocked them and then deleted them all. So far no more have come in.

*thank you MM for suggesting that (didn't even think about it)

I don't have to get a new email addy yet.

I don't even use my hotmail account anymore, because of the spam that I get through there.

I get enough spam at my yahoo account simply becasue I signed up for a Lit email addy with that address. Don't need Hotmails crap too. My main email addy, rarely gets spam sent to it, because only friends and family have that one.

Filters are a bitch to work with anyway, all someone has to do, is change one letter, and it gets through to you again.

Lo

freaky that same thing happened to me and two ocations.

woke up to 244 messages all the same.

and I"m prety sure it was you that told me what to do about it.
you don't need a new addy.

forward the message to abuse@(whatever the domain of that e-mail is) tell them about it.

go into delet onemessage go to the trash bin, and use that one to block that user. then go delete the rest. it will stop.

*update*

234 more emails in less than 15 minutes. (different addy.. same people.. one letter changed in their name)

I did the abuse@domain .. I blocked.. i deleted.. I'm still getting them...I'll see what happens in a few days. Hopefully this stops.

I got so many of these I turned on the junk mail filter and set it to delete the messages before they reach the folder. If you need to find out how to do this PM me and I can walk you through it.

I got 415 e-mails one time.... then 20 minutes later 500 from the same person. Blocking will sometimes help, but others get through. Best thing to use is the junk or bulk mail filter.

Yup been there. I get home from work and theirs like 9 pages of email all from the same jerk trying to sell me home owners insurance for my apartment. Do what I did and forward their email address to cra.com and they'll donate one whole day to email that person over and over again.

Sorry the addy was crap.net but it looks as if they've discontinued their service of day long emails. So sad when something that good can go bad.
