My company's spamkiller usually puts the daily TechWhirler announcement
email in the Deleted Items, along with postings from selected
contributors---primarily Andrew Plato. <g>
Unfortunately it lets through all the Portuguese spam. For some reason I
get at least twenty emails a day, all in Portuguese, about drugs,
mailing lists, cell phones, and ways to enhance certain body parts,
among other spammish topics. Does anyone else get foreign-language spam?
