I have friends in Uganda and Ethiopia, and a straight-up spam filter from Africa didn't work, since it cut them out too. So I kept tweaking it, and finally succeeded. My spam filter now searches by name, and spaminates all suspicious names such as Barack Hussein Obama (I have it set to spaminate likely terrorists as well).LawHawkRFDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800255923675295515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-39579466739281204342010-01-15T12:55:10.314-05:002010-01-15T12:55:10.314-05:00Bev, I'll get the stimulus application ready! ...Bev, I'll get the stimulus application ready!

Though actually, Andrew, I think you have stumbled onto a new career opportunity - producing photos of baby animals doing cute things with bulleyes on them. Market them back to the Nigerians or Kenyans (or Congress)with the following -<br /><br />Dear [Nigerian] friend:<br /><br /> Are your returns slowing down on your email solicitations? We will let you use this photo in your next email, and promise those returns will begin flowing in like never before all for the low, low investment of $100. Please send credit card number or checking account information NOW and we will email a copy of this photo to you for your exclusive use.<br /><br />Thank you,<br />Your true Commentarama-ian Friend<br /><br />For Congress, you can substitute "email solicitation" with "campaign contribution request" and "$100" with "$100 billion".BevfromNYChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14953050916932306270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4425587034622601550.post-43172368953053270762010-01-15T10:51:03.506-05:002010-01-15T10:51:03.506-05:00Writer X, You should, it's highly annoying!
