We all know how sickening it is to have even a single spam message in our inbox.
Imagining the same with 100’s of such spams crawling all over a public forum, where there are 1000’s of visitors everyday, to discuss critical issues and exchange valuable notes, is terrible. This, is one such variant, where the spammers use automated tools to send spams to mailing lists or public discussion boards, to get the addresses, or use them as targets for their attacks.
It is shocking to know that the rate of spam as I type this post is 2 spams per minute!It is all the more painful after weekends, when there is huge accumulated spam to clean up.For the past few days, we spent more time cleaning up the spams than on any other activity!
Anyway, we are looking at what we can do quickly, as best to do away with these spams. Meanwhile, please bear with us for the terrible inconvenience caused.
