I can't believe people tolerate, let alone think SPAM is ok. SPAM fucking sucks. Plain and simple. It takes time to delete, it takes time to setup filters and it really sucks when important emails get flagged as spam.

A nasty side effect of spam and e-mailed viruses is costing companies an estimated $5 billion per year in IT resources, according to security services company IronPort.
I think spammers are created from the same shit heap that the malware / spyware people are created from. It's sad so many people around here "tolerate" it. Dealing with spam wastes my time and everyone elses time. Let's say I charge $100 / hour consulting fees. If I figure I spend 20-30 minutes each day filtering out spam from my regular emails that filters don't pick up across multiple email accounts, spammers are costing me ~$1000 - $1500 per month in wasted time.

Fuck spammers.
