De-Spam

I’ve already spent a good 30-45 minutes going through all the spam that my boss collected over the weekend. She seems to get more than most folks here, or at least seems more irritated by it, so I tried to go through it all and come up with some Outlook rules that will make things a little bit better. I think, given the inordinate number of emails for online prescription drugs, that the keyword filters I’ve put in place should definitely help matters. We’ll see. It was definitely a situation to note for moving to Outlook 2003 with it’s built-in spam blocking tools, but that’s a discussion for a later time, by far.

Not exactly how I wanted to start my Monday morning though, weeding through spam! Let’s hope the rest of the day is better, especially since it’s time to run all those month-end reports!
