Dennis in NC Posted July 12, 2005 Posted July 12, 2005 I used to use Earthlink and had nearly zero spam - it was very rare. As soon as I got Cox, I started getting tons of spam (without using my address freely in public sites). It seemed like someone at Cox was selling the addresses. But we all have the option of sending that trash to the Federal Trade Commission at this address: spam@uce.gov (UCE is "unsolicited commercial email", spam's polite name) You can cc your ISP as well, the address varies a bit, like spam@your-isp.com or maybe abuse@your-isp.com It's good to have someplace to forward the crap emails...
