I logged into my hotmail account and my space quota is filled up with around 300 messages in my inbox and 100 in my bulk mail folder.

Needless to say, I don't use that account anymore, but I do re-activate it occassionally.

He even managed to changed my password to proof it to me...

I've never used Hotmail before... my 6 MB Yahoo! account is more than enough for all of my spam.

Thats nothing ... I have an ISP account that I have had for about 6years and it gets nearly 250 spam messages daily.

Last month I got around 7000 spam messages to that account.

It's freaking ridiculous.

Made a small mistake in Exim mail filters, and had a backlog of over 3,000 messages in 2 days to one account stuck in the queue.

Hoobastank68, you posting your email address on a forum like this certainly would contribute to getting more spam. Crawlers that look for email addresses pick up those mailto: links.

Speaking of volume…. Most of my email is actually made of “Reported post from WebHostingTalk Forums” :rolleyes: :D

Quoting this to highlight the point. Typing out your e-mail address anywhere publicly from forums, to your own site is going to get you junkmail.

I'm one of the few people that have _NEVER_ received spam in my hotmail account. I use it only to communicate on MSN, and give it to friends.

You guys all LOSE :D. The moderators are currently getting mailbombed by a disgruntled FORMER member, 4,000 and counting.

That's cool Rochen -- but really when you think about it how lame is a mailbomb attack? I mean sheesh, 1994 called and wanted its cooler "hacker attack" back ;).

4000 messages, sheesh, that's only about 1/4 of the hate mail we get in a day :D.

That was yesterday. Read your headers to see why they bounced.

ChickenSteak
06-19-2003, 01:25 AM
maybe it was in the backlog? headers appeared fine on my side, but since then i've formated.

Your issue was hours before the mailbomb. I was sleeping when it started. What a rude awakening. :bawling:
