your comment's a little short-sighted. i only say this because my personal email is all from this country. if you decided to limit the mail from certain geographic regions (brazil, russia, china, and taiwan), you could limit spam too.
reject _all_ mail with foreign (out-of-country-connotation) origins. this could take care of seventy per-cent of my spam (you listening, yahoo? gmail?). this also would help to identify and prosecute local spammers.
I think you might appreciate this... Blackfire is a band who did a pretty good version of "Mean Things Happening in This World," written by Woody Guthrie. You can hear an MP3 of it on their website.

once i tried to record a voicemail message using a tape recorder held to the earpiece of my cell phone.
(yeah stupid, but what you gonna do?)
"yeah CLICK we're gonna CLICK go to jack in the CLICKox and we're going to CLICK pick up some more beer... you'd better CLICK not be in lab CLICK or i'm gonna kick your CLICK..."(end message)
they can't swerve their vehicle if their boxen are infected with virii thus allowing the detection unit to transmit spam, even through the reverse firewall.
when on a university network, just about everyone's itunes playlists are online. who would need to download illegally if everyone else had already done it for you?
think you also forget that the US is the only country in the western world where providing a decent level of healthcare for everyone is treated with contempt. Last time I checked, Canada, Britain, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Australia, New Zealand, etc were all in the "real world".
one of the unintended side effects of living in a welfare state is the overzealous (extremely jealous) guarding of their borders. yeah, we guard our borders, but one reason we don't have universal healthcare is because we can't do that as well as island nations and other nations surrounded by welfare states.
i'm all for immigration, but i too wonder about universal health care.
i've notice this as well. it seems i'm getting more spam in my inbox as well. i believe that yahoo is capable of catching what is now seeping through, but they allow it (say if a random.30 then allow spam through) to try to make their advanced spam filtering from a paid account more desireable.
this has nothing to do with political correctness. i has to do with having to come up with new nouns given a set vocabulary. not having seen white people or other people of african descent, the most logical way of describing them was of course, with descriptive words.
the english translations of the words don't quite do the descriptions justice either. for instance, zhini or ZHIN-NI as the navy spells it does describe the color black, but calling them "blackies" is subjective from an english translator's perspective.
from the same navy dot mil address: Most letters had more than one Navajo word representing them. Not all words had to be spelled out letter by letter. The developers of the original code assigned Navajo words to represent about 450 frequently used military terms that did not exist in the Navajo language. Several examples: "besh- lo" (iron fish) meant "submarine," "dah-he- tih-hi" (hummingbird) meant "fighter plane" and "debeh-li-zine" (black street) meant "squad."
debeh-li-zine is "black sheep", not "black street". and it's phonetically dibEH-thli-zhiNEH

detecting that RF bullCLICK should be easy.

but this discussion is about how to prevent our beloved boxen from sending spam.
so how did you post to slashdot?
No, it's for stealing, um, borrowing MS Office from Apple Stores!
works for problems in the u.s. government also.

that's right. now all bill needs is a squire with two rocks to follow him around to simulate those hoof-on-ground noises.

they cannot coexist.

yahoo just wants us to buy mail accounts.
i can feel the power from here.
he's right: the Pima code talkers rock too.
how is this for insightful:
