What do you do with your spam? Call the authorities? Send it back to the
sender with expletive writing
appended? Set it to simmer with white wine sauce?
When I have leftover spam, I make spam rehash. You will
positive need
:
1 pop3 mailbox
1 multiple communication
autoresponder
1 e-mail extractor
1 electronic mail
verifier
as much spam from the sell
as you might
get
Mailbox must be large enough to handle leftover spam. Preferably a pop3
account so you can manage it on your desktop. Do not
make use of
a mailbox you do not
want spammed, its hard to get out. Free pop3s could be
found at:

Stuff mailbox with leftover spam. You dont know where to get spam? (You
have lived a nice
life.) I shop at FFAL sites, guestbooks, classified advertisement
sites, freebie signups, etc. Anywhere you put your e-mail address, be assured
they want to send you mail back.
Best of all, some sites will sell your email address to spam lists. On other
sites, mostly guestbooks and classified ads, spammers will harvest your
e mail addresses and send you spam FREE!
After a week or a month (you want it to age), take spam from mailbox. Add
spam to email extractor.

Your going to have some bad spam. Dont smell it! Just take my word. You will
have to do some carving to get to the great stuff. Run spam through e-mail
validator. The bad stuff will slide right off.

After youve verified your spam, its ready to go into an autoresponder and
served to guests or customers. Your autoresponder must have capabilities to
import lists. GetResponse might
do this and send out your communication
in timed
intervals with an opt out option.

The quick cook recipe works if you want to serve your spam in a hurry, but
remember that your autoresponder will not go well with FFAL websites and
some classified ads. Your autoresponder host doesnt like it when you submit
autoresponder addresses to these pages and will minimum, shut your responder
down.
Quick Cook Recipe
Instead of putting your pop3 email address on the guestbooks or classified
ads, use the autoresponder address. When spammers harvest your autoresponder
address, they immediately get a serving of spam rehash, thus serving your
customers and guests sooner.
Remember, if they send it to you, send them something in return. Bon
appetit!
