No Escape from Spam :(
-
Recently our company created new mail ID and domain as part of some corporate changes. When I first logged in my account spammers welcomed with their heavy loads of spam. These idiots are so clever :(

Basically, without anti-spam software installed somewhere there's no way of escaping it. I'm sure others will disagree with this though.

Now spamfighting tools are equally important as Antiviruses. For a domain, try Barracuda Firewall: http://www.barracudanetworks.com/ns/?L=en[^]

I'm gonna second Clickok's recommendation of Google-hosted mail. Excellent results, with maybe three-four false-negatives a week, and fewer than that many false positives a month. My employer uses Sprint for spam filtering, which also works fairly well - i've yet to see a false-positive from it. That said, these are much less public email addresses. Less useful: whatever's built into Outlook. Nothin' but false positives. Completely useless: whatever Microsoft uses for HoTMaiL. Amazing how much spam i get there, and i don't use that address at all.

It appears that everybody is under the impression that I approve of the documentation. You probably also blame Ken Burns for supporting slavery.

New domains usually have immature configurations which means the chances of getting past defences are high. It's directly analogous to the immature immune system of a baby. Therefore spammers use watch for new domains and specifically target them. After they've been sharing ice-cream with the dog for a while it's much harder to invade. People crap on about the evil of spam but no-one will pay for the real solution, which is basically authenticated send combined with government issued e-stamps. The idea is that you accept unsolicited sources only when someone values your time, storage and bandwidth enough to pay for the privilege. An e-stamp is basically a digital certificate appertaining to the fully formed email. Since this includes your email address AND a send timestamp the e-stamp can only be used once, rather like a regular postage stamp. The point of this is not to provide govts with yet another tax scam, it's to screw up the economics of spam and drive the buggers out of business. That's why I also suggested accepting unstamped mail from known sources - it prevents govts from using this as a revenue gatherer.
