The War on Spam

You can help the war on Spam – specifically Image Spam.  That’s the spam that shows up in your inbox as graphics instead of text. 

The spammers got wise that all us mail admins were analyzing the text of the messages to help flag the spam.  So they ‘hid’ their pitch inside a picture so we would have a harder time analyzing it.

Grab a drink, warm up your mouse clicking finger, and make your way over to http://spamornot.org/.   Help the cause – rate a hundred images on your next break.
