Peoples passwords don't work and need to be changed if they type them incorrectly. Especially bosses that can make no mistakes!

Also people ask to be made a member of a report distribution group that the name they use for the group doesn't have anything to do with the real name of the group, and act like I am a idiot for not knowing "their" pet name for this group even though there are literally hundreds of groups. They finally send me a copy of the report and it is plainly named what the distribution group is named.

Is this why it is called work?

Well, so far the new spam filter, Roaring Penguin's Canit, seems to be doing better than Mail Foundry does. I have not gotten one spam to my inbox in 2 days. And have only gotten one email falsely reported as spam (their own email quarantine summary! ha ha). And surprisingly have only gotten 2 spam emails to my Junk E-mail folder, and they were obviously still going thru the old mail foundry server.

They do have a few more emails currently in the quarantine folder than was in my Junk E-mail folder, but will see how quickly it learns to block that spam.

Sounds like we need to sign you up for more spam sites.

Obviously signed me up for some Russian spam.

It's really too bad at work we have Russian, Chinese, Mexican, Australian, and European distributors, that's where a LOT of spam comes from. Don't know what good it does to advertise in America in their own languages, especially Russian, Spanish, and Chinese and not English.

Sniff Sniff Sniff, I think I smell my credit card melting. My new 17 inch Euromister wheels came in, they at the wheel shop getting painted Grand Prix White like the OEM 15s.

I just ordered tires. OUCH.

The last set of 15 inch tires were under $500 mounted and balanced. The new tires are just under a cool grand just for the rubber! Ouch.

Gotta pay to play.

There are more sites on the internet on how to fool spam filter than there are actual spam filters.

You are causing people to do the bad "C" word!

Change is scary!

I sure hope it does better that Mail Foundry. I have several hundred spams per week. So much of it is from the new domains.

Honestly, as long as they are going to you Junk E-mail folder and not your Inbox it is not that bad.

Hopefully this will keep the spam bandwidth from effecting the mailserver itself.

The most interesting English lesson I have had to date.



Did you know "listen" and "silent" use the same letters?
Do you know that the words "race car" spelled backwards still spells "race car"?

And that "eat" is the only word that if you take the first letter and move it to the last, it spells its past tense "ate"?



And have you noticed that if you rearrange the letters in "illegal immigrants," and add just a few more letters, it spells: "Go home you ****in free-loading, benefit-grabbing, resource-sucking, baby-making, non-English-speaking *******s and take those other hairy-faced, sandal-wearing, bomb-making, camel-riding, goat-****ing, raggedy-ass ****heads with you."


How weird is that?
