thought you would find this interesting...

I get a LOT of political spam on one of my mails due to hosting a political site once. I have been slowly blacklisting the bulk companies and 'the net' of private people pushing political spam.

There is one guy who has been sending me stuff for years and I just have it go to the junk folder and deleted..forgot about it.

New server, new rules. His came today. I wrote his university a nasty letter. I wrote him a nasty letter. (I had contacted him a few times in the years past to make him stop but he never did.)

Well, tonight I got home...looked at his spam. Hey, it had his number on it. So I called him and told him to stop...told him why it bothered me. Told him somethings that happened to me in the past, what I like about websites. all sorts of junk, kept talking and making him listen to me..

He was getting impatient but I said 'now you know what it is like to have your uninteresting cr#p come in my mailbox.'

He has agreed to stop spamming me....I told Him I blacklisted him anyway.

I felt really good about that call...I think he will rethink his phone number on spam from now on.
