I'm in the US and I despise spam, more than one email address I've had

number of disposable email forwards through trashmail.net, now whenever
I start getting spam from one, I can just drop it and switch to another.


I use 'Mailwasher' to bounce the garbage as undeliverable.

NO!!!!!
NEVER bounce mail unless you can _guarantee_ that it goes to the ACTUAL
sender!!!!


I look at the headers, and bounce it back when the IP address matches
the server name. I was getting over 2000 pieces of junk a week when I
started. It quickly dropped to less than a dozen, and some of those are
from zombies on broadband connections. By bouncing those, their ISP can
spot the problem and tell them to fix their computer, or close their
account. There are millions of bounce from bad or closed e-mail
accounts every day. Some of the spammers remove the bounces form their
lists. The spam with 50 or more addresses in the headers is sent by
those who don't give a damn.

I am down to less than a dozen bounces a week. Some domains are
blacklisted by me and my E-mail server, along with Mailwashers checks
the spamcop and other blacklists.
