After months of griping (mostly to myself), I finally got a bit more serious with my spam filtering software. I REALLY don’t like annoying things, and spam most definitely qualifies! Since 20 out of the 25 emails I get is spam, I’m very annoyed. Not even SpamAssassin and SpamBayes combined work to my satisfaction! So…I’m going to write my own customized spam filter. It won’t tell my my sister’s email is spam, and it’ll archive spam in a great zip file, but never show it to me or put in a “likely spam” folder. Today I spent an hour or so figuring out how to access my mailbox from PHP (with a little help from some telneting). Spam is going down (provided I have enough time to code it).
