How much junk-mail did I recieve today?

Feel free to guess a specific number - closest gets a cookie* - answer coming after there's been a few votes...

Oh, and I haven't just received the same email a bunch of times.

*cookie is fictional

less=more.

/me wants to achieve zero someday :heee:

whispers to jeff

your numbers don't gee bud :razz:

314.5

I'd be willing to donate an internet cookie as a prize. Feeling generous today. But I'd say 1549, despite not voting for that.

I say 1548, to steal any numbers that are lower than Lep's guess :biggrin:

1547.

I get 0-30 a day... on my gmail I get no spam at all, it kicks ass :biggrin:

I guess 1550 :razz:

My actual guess would be like 9.

If he started a thread like this for a mere 9 spam emails, I'd be oblidged to slap him :razz:

He asked in #snarkpit. But I didn't respond quickly enough, and he decided to post this poll. I'm afraid this is all my fault... I couldn't stop him! I was too late! sobs

#snarkpit on quakenet? Bah!

Just wondering, but does anyone else here have Gmail? (Google Mail). Its really good, the whole system and way its done is really unique, replys are all kept in wierd conversation form, and it loads all quickly cus its all java and stuff. Really quite amazing, I'm sure other places will steal the idea.

I use yahoo mail and I'm pretty satisfied with it. The built in spam-blocker is great (I never get junkmail). Plus they just upped the mailbox size to 100mb which is nice to have.

I guess 3,333 spams.

1337

Unless you've been busy giving your email addy to every f**king porn site under the sun, I'm going to guess 14.

I've got a gmail account. I've yet to really start using it, but the idea is great. Kind of a personal forum of emails.

I guess about 400.

I get about 1 or 2 a week :biggrin: max

He doesn't necessarily have to have signed up for all that pr0n himself- one disgruntled fellow who was banned from this site took the liberty of putting my e-mail down for pretty much everything ever relating to sex. Hooray for spam filters though (but shame they can't ever seem to stop those damn Omaha Steak ads from getting through...)

Lol omaha steak....

Yer gmail is really cool stuff, the way its all forum like, really comfortable way of using it...

/me prods lep to steal some ideas :biggrin:

Rugal was just looking out for you. I'm certain he thought you'd appreciate it.

I guess 300-559, considering scary_jeff wouldn't post about getting a
mere 20 spam emails, so yeah. If he had 600 or more in one most emails
would die or something, I'm guessing.

I get about 1-2 spam emails that aren't automatically put in "Junk mail" by Hotmail. In "Junky mail" I get about 5-10 a month.

coulda been worse i suppose, he coulda altered your gender and had you receive a whole s**tload of female email

i just hope you learned your lesson, you really should have given him the first 1000 chances for free :rolleyes:

My guess: 666 :biggrin:

Is Gmail avaliable for everyone now?

I get 4/5 spam mails a day.

1 from hotmail none from wanadoo

only 2 from hotmail :smile:

Biological Component wins with his guess of 3,333. I actually received close to 6,000 :smile:

Holy crap, thats just silly!

You get 6,000 spam emails daily...

/me turns on fire wall :biggrin:

Walla (http://www.zdnet.be/redirect.cfm?http://www.walla.com/) is offering 1 gb too.

Yeah, well, your e-mail address helps pay for this site's bandwidth, so don't complain :biggrin:

No, not 6000 every day, just that day. The silly thing is that I don't remember ever using that address for an internet account of any kind...

Yeah, because companies, like Mircrosoft, get paid to spam people by other companies.

So if you turn on "spam blocker" with hotmail, it blocks all spam that you've labelled and everything else, except emails that have registered paying companies with hotmail.

Pretty gay.

I was also the first to vote 4800+. I only posted a guess in the 3,000s because there were no poll votes in the 5th category(2400-4799).

It's just an ongoing joke Jfry.

Aren't they in isreal?

Hehe I get 0 at all on my linuxmail.org account. ZERO=0=NADA=NOSPAM!!!111

Don't know why... maybe even spam composers don't want to send me mails. Ah damnit now I feel alone.
