I’ve got a fairly public e-mail address; I plastered it all over my website back in the days when that wasn’t obviously a mistake. By this time, every spammer in creation has it, and I’m simply resigned to getting tons of spam. However, some spammers go farther than simply sending spam TO my e-mail address; spammers like to forge the sender’s name, setting it to the address of some innocent person like me. There’s been an upsurge in this recently, judging from the slew of erroneous “bounce” e-mails I’ve been getting for messages I never sent myself…
…and now it appears that my ISP has decided that my web host, who forwards my e-mail to my ISP e-mail account, is a spammer, and I’m not getting any of my e-mail.
So if you’re wanting to get ahold of me by e-mail, be patient; I’m not sure how long this will take to get resolved.
