[or-roots] SPAM

[Cecil Houk]

Barbara, George et al:

I've been on the internet since 1997; same IP (Cox Cable) since 1998.  My IP offers a spam filter 
that can direct suspected spam to a spam folder, but I can't seem to make that work.  So....  I've 
set McAfee's SPAMKILLER to trap e-mail from everyone who is NOT on my "friends" list.  I add the 
good guys as they show up.

As soon as these lotos I've won pay up, I will give each of you $1,000,000.

Well, that explains why I am getting answers to messages that never reached me.  My Spam filter does 
not allow anything that it has tagged [SPAM:**] or higher through.  It dumps it in a spam folder and 
every week or so I dump the folder.  Last time there were 671 messages in the folder so you can 
guess that I did not check carefully to see if there was something there I really wanted.

I believe that some of the spam blockers will tag outgoing e-mails as spam.  Mine only tags incoming 
ones and dumps them in a spam folder.

Right now I have three coming from comcast in the spam folder.

I am curious! Many of the or-roots items that come to my computer, are preceded with [SPAM:**]. Is 
this normal? Is this something I should be concerned about?
