After being inspired by Sybil Law, I checked my spam folder on Google Mail. It’s fascinating.
Top of the list was an email from Katrina Madelyn offering me drugs from a Canadian pharmacy, including Viagra and others I had never head of like Flomax and Rockit247. ViagraOralJelly sounds interesting.
Nestor Sheppard, whose email address is ColbyaffinitySheppard@wowhead.com, wrote: “A top team of British scientists and medical doctors have worked to develop the state-of-the-art penis enlargement patch delivery system which automatically increases penis size up to 3-4 full inches.”
Estele Engle wants to date me: “I’m a pretty woman, brunette with brown eyes, and I’m looking for an intelligent man to communicate by email, Skype, or on real dates!”
Astrology.com thinks I’m gay: “A psychic can help you get inside his mind – so that you can win back his heart.” Wrong!
Natalia asks me: “Are you unlucky in finding a perfect wife?” and links me to a Russian site.
etc …
I really like Google’s spam filter.

True, not recommended. Don’t follow the links and don’t open any attachments.
My problem is a lot of emails I get from Australia go into my spam folder. The weird thing is sometimes if happens after we’ve already exchanged emails.
I think the issue is I use AMERICAN Online. It must be all Nationalist or something. It doesn’t want me talking to Australians.
Anyway, I check the spam folder and there’s usually one or two emails from an Australian. The problem is, it’s hard to tell sometimes and I always end up opening a spam email as well.

Dina, they might be suspicious of .au domains and other foreign extensions. Don’t know if it’s worth it, but you could ask them to whitelist them.
That’s one reason I like Google’s spam filter. The user has control over things like that.
Re Colbyaffinity’s offer: Does it increase your size by 3-4 inches or to 3 or four inches?..Gotta check the fine print. And would it produce the same result with each repetition of the treatment?
I think spam topics must reflect what is actually being searched for on Google and/or what’s proven to get a response. So spam topics would be a measure of what is on the minds of millions out there. You don’t get much spam offering courses in deciphering Mesopotamian cuneiform scripts. Just sex, drugs and…more sex and drugs.
