quitting $DAYJOB to concentrate on spamming, now!
Steve,
I thought you knew this already? I didn't tell you??
A spammer once offered me KES to setup a mail server for him and I did and it was more for the fun of it - getting to meet a confessed spammer, to understand his business, how the money came in, etc than anything else. It's the only time I met a spammer face to face and he quantified for me how what I always thought was a bother in my INBOX actually turned out to be real money to others.
