does anyone really respond to emails like this:

Hi,
Hope I am not writing to wrong address. I am nice, pretty looking girl. I am planning on visiting your town this month. Can we meet each other in person? Message me back at cq@goodmtmail.info

I mean seriously – they just keep coming and coming – I must get at least 60 messages a day – 30 or so caught by my mail server filter and an other 20 caught by my email client filter and 10 get through.

This kind of email is particularly insane. The email is obviously capturing responses to show its a good email – its right in the address folks! Those desperate souls that respond to a message like this get put on a list and spammed even more!

I’ve considered going to white lists (only accepting mail from approved senders) but that might be to exclusive. For now the filters catch most, I’ll deal with the rest.
