What's in your Spam Folder?

[Ian David]

First of all, apparently today is a big Spam day. The following is a service announcement on the SpamCop webpage:



Oct 19, 2006

* <10:45 EDT> SpamCop and others are monitoring a huge global increase in spam volumes that started late last week. Networks are reporting anywhere from 30-50% increases in spam volume. On our system, this is causing occasional mail delays as our filtering systems struggle with the load. We're working on installing more systems in the filters to increase our capacity but this won't be finished for around a week. In the meantime, we may have delays during the middle of the day. We're aware of the problem and doing what we can to mitigate it until all the new systems are operational.

2. I have 3,567 messages in my "bulk:" box

I just stopped reading them, thinking my box would fill up and not accept more after 1,000.
Is there a down side to ignoring them?
