Set epass email forwarding and now I'm getting spams...
 
I thought they blocked external emails?

How did the mail guy even find my epass email? It's only ever been used to send mails to cs.

Good point. I guess one of my fellow webmasters thinks I need a bigger dick. Fucking spammers.

can't stand getting spammed to my epass account:(

The strange thing is that the spam does appear to have been forwarded via epass (and it arrived about 20 mins after I set up forwarding), but (a) it doesn't show in the webmail folder and (b) no other spams do either

Are they filtering their webmail?

The forwarder is in place before the filter which means that email send to youraccount@epassporte is forwarded then filtered and only emails from ePassporte show up in your ePassporte inbox.

I have the same spam problem with one of my ePassporte accounts I get 20-30 spams a day I forward it to a gmail account and it filter out everything but the ePassporte emails.

I will try to talk to the techs and see if it can be changed so only the emails from ePassporte are forwarded.

And you gave the email to sponsors right?

Do what I do - set up a domain just for email with catchall so that you can see who's spamming/selling your email addy

If I send you an email - it would be from me using [email protected] so if later I get a penis enlargement spam - I know you sold either my email info or are spamming it yourself

Then I'd either come back to you for an explaination as to why - or set up a filter to throw any emails to that addy into the trash and never speak to you again cause you're an untrustworthy bastard! (Just using you as an example) :)

I'm taking a more passive approach... I'm going to be changing my email address each year.

The epass spam is the first one that has hit the new "squeaky clean" address. :)

idea: Would be great if we could upload our GPG/PGP public keys and get encrypted msgs...

another idea,
would be cool if the emails you get when someone pays you had the information about current balance of account.
