I woke up this morning, and as I always do, first thing I did was check my email.

My junk mail box contained 6000+ bounced messages.

Some spammer is spoofing return addresses @kevyn.com, and sending out spam advertising Windows Vista, of all things. Ugh.

And the onslaught is continuing. Every few minutes, there's dozens more. Fuckers.

It's not the first time this has happened. Every few months, kevyn.com comes up in some spammer's rotation somewhere, and I end up having to delete thousands of messages. What a pain in the ass.

Nothing to do now but wait out the storm.

*sigh*

If anyone sent me something that got caught by my junk mail filter, I'm sorry, but I am deleting everything in that folder en masse, without looking to see if any legit mails got caught. Sorry.

Almost 18,000 bounced emails now. And they're still coming. I've created filters to shunt most of them right to the trash, but it's still a pain in the ass.

Add another 10,000 to the total, bringing it up to 28,000 emails I have had to delete.

GODS I hope this ends soon!
