Mailing Lists
A while back I wrote an entry about not being able to unsubscribe from the Major League Baseball mailing lists. I’m still getting them, but I just try to ignore them now. I do have another interesting email I get each week now…”A Foreign Affair weekly matches”.
I have NO clue how I got on this mailing list, none. Each week I am treated to a list of women from such places as the Ukraine, Colombia, and the Philippines. Then they offer a “romantic trip” to one of their locations to meet said women…yeah, it’s all pretty sleazy. And just like the MLB mailing lists, I can not get rid of these stupid emails! I mean, silly me, I’m not interested in 19 year old Ukrainian women. I know, I know, you’re all shocked. But I mean, really, there are so many available women in the U.S.A. who are quite the catch…
hmmm Maybe the Ukraine isn’t so bad…

You know if you use gmail when subscribing to websites you can use suffixes like
yourname@gmail.com
yourname+mailinglistA@gmail.com
yourname+mailinglistB@gmail.com etc.
All the mails get routed to the root one (top) but you can tell where the spam is coming from cut off that source by looking at the address.
