Long posts and little time to write them

It seems I’ve hit the wall on short and easy blog posts to write recently. There’s a lot I want to talk about like the recent changes at Spamhaus, filtering in the upcoming year and where I see the industry going, some thoughts on DKIM and how folks are using it. All of these things, though, will take some focused writhing time. And right now most of my focused writing time is spent on customer work.
I don’t even have time to read other blogs to comment on things folks are saying.
So blogging is likely to be light over the next few weeks, although I’m going to try very hard to get posts up 3 times a week.

I had a realization a few days ago that next week is October. Where did the year go? Blogging is likely to be light in October, I’m at multiple conferences (OTA next week, MAAWG at the end of the month).
Please stop by and introduce yourselves if you’re at either conference. I always love to meet readers.

Harvesting is alive and well

I’m finding out that email address harvesting off websites is alive and well on the Internet. We have a rotating address on the contact page, which does get harvested but usually the spam is attempting to sell me blog related services. I didn’t expect to get a very different collection of emails to the address I posted here. I’m quite surprised that address is getting a completely different type of spam from the contact address.
The one thing that harvesters appear to have in common is sending CAN SPAM violating email. Both the contact address and the questions address get lots of mail that is in violation of US (and California) law. One of these days I might get bored enough to file a suit against one of them and blog about it.
