Okay, when I get SPAM from someone trying to sell me a vacation or a new credit card or whatever, I can understand that.....don't get me wrong, I don't like it or agree with it, but I have come to accept the fact it will continue to have over 100 times a day (thank god for filters in The Bat!)

But what really peeves me off is when I get SPAM from another hosting company! Crap telling me that I can host my stuff for a better price on their network and servers, when I am sitting here with my own servers and own connections! I should call them up and see if I can host all my stuff for free there also!

Here is the message that put me in a bad mood today....

Yeah I like to copy their TOS policy where it says no spam and send it back to them, then I keep a list handy and if I get anyone that ask if they can send spam form my server I give them the lsit of hosts that send spam and tell them to they allow it since they do it themselves.

I've received a whole flood of spam messages from China this week. Checking email is becoming more of a chore having to deal with the spam.
