[AccessD] OT - Spam Blocker

We just started to test Spam Assasin on our servers at work. Oddd thing is I
dont get any spam. I use a hotmail account for anything I do on the web and
leave it to Microsoft to clear out every so often.

If your putting your email address on the web make sure you do it in such a
way that the robots etc cant recognise it as such.
