I get an email from a luser here.

"I just got this email. How do I keep getting these it is not my email. How does this happen???"

What's the forward? Penis enlargement spam, of course.

Are you shitting me? It wasn't even from an address that I maintain. It's webmail from a crappy email provider.

So he gets back:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-mail_spam

As if I have the time or inclenation to explain to him how he gets spam.

Hehe....

The last I heard, about 1.5% of our incoming mail actually makes it through all the filtering we have in place. After all that, people still bitch and moan when some new tactic slips 2 or 3 through every now and again.

I like that link. I might have to start using it.

Just explain to him that its "targeted marketing" and suggest that he keep his shortcomings private from now on so he wont get these offers.
