Dropping an e-mail address
One of my e-mail addresses has started receiving more than a healthy helping of spam in recent days. I’m not really sure how, and it’s not important anyway. There are probably a few different ways it could have happened; it doesn’t really matter that much to me.
What does matter is that it’s happening, and that I want it not to be happening. So… in the interest of trying to stem the flow, I’m going to completely disable the account for now. I’m hoping that after a week or two of bounce-back undeliverable mail, somewhere along the line my e-mail address will get removed from whatever lists it made itself onto.
What that means is that anyone who has that e-mail as the primary address for me is going to need to get that updated. As of this coming Sunday 6 April 2008 - one week from today - I’ll be disabling my ‘admin’ e-mail. Most people I know should have some alternate form of contacting me - phone, or another e-mail address.
So… heads up.
See you on the flip side.
