Lately I’ve received annoying spam especially on my business email account. By the end of November last year I would receive about 20 to 30 a day… So I’ve set up a spam filter on my mail server not realising it was set so tight that some people who tried to send me emails had them bounced. Can you imagine you’re throwing a party; there’s a room full of people chatting, loud music and then all of a sudden silence, total silence… what a pleasure you think at first, but then you realise that everyone has left and you don’t really understand why or what happened.
So I decided to check the spam filter because I didn’t get emails in and then people actually told me their emails had bounced, so there it was, that worrying feeling naggin in the back of my mind. I have to admit I did something stupid: set up the wrong filter rule. So I just changed it back and made sure to check the verification option so people would be able to verify their email address and end up on my white list. Ever since I’ve changed it back I’m getting the odd spam in. I honestly believe spam servers are outdated and are no longer effective.
