I can't believe the number of people complaining about getting this crap at work! What kind of "work" do you do?

Yesterday, as a coincidence, the president of my company sent an E-mail to all recipients demanding that E-mails be looked at at least twice daily. He noted shocking figures of low numbers of blanket E-mails being opened at all! If I spent my time on the list during work hours instead of at home I would be fired in short order - porno spam or not.

I agree with those who complain the responses to spam are worse than the spam itself. My average number of messages on the Vanagon list is 60 - 80 each day. Today I recieved 190!
