Anyone else out there getting FED UP with the increasing annoyance of
JUNK E-MAIL ADVERTIZERS who flood the groups with unrequested junk mailings?
At least with traditional paper advertising, the cost of the paper is a
deterrent. These jerks send unlimited copies of their ads to groups
that are unrelated to their wares.
I have heard that software is available to echo back to the junk-emailers
thousands of repeated copies of their unrequested email ads. The goal is
to fill up their email boxes, thus discouraging further junk-mailings.
Is this true? Is there an Apple II version of that software? Any
creative programmers getting the hint? ;-) Any disadvantages?
