Hotjunk

hotjunk.jpgTwo good things about Mac Mail.app. There is a Hotmail plugin and it has a good junkmail filter. Just pulled a batch of mails from Hotmail and i can report that the junk mail rate there is

100 %

This is a message to every marketing genius west of the Atlantic ocean: You can spare yourself those "register your product", "your opinion is important to us" and "let me swipe your badge". You are either pissing off people or your valuable messages end up in the junk basket, together with adverts for all kinds of body enhancements. I know there is a freedom of speech. But there is also a freedom of not listening.

So I hear that Microsoft is fighting spam on Hotmail.com. It looks like the only measure is to shut this thing down completely. :-)
