In a previous post, I commented on just how much spam I had received during a one-month time frame. At the time of the post, on 17 November, I had acquired 5,481 spam e-mail messages.

A little under a month later, on 12 December, I updated the post to indicate that the total number of e-mail messages in my spam folder had risen to 7,184.

Now, on 30 December, that number has further climbed to 11,506, which is just insane.

According to a recent report, “spam accounted for 87% of traffic this year.” (YMMV.)

One thing is for sure, I am extremely happy I have an e-mail client with a pretty decent spam filter, so I hardly ever see any of these messages cluttering my inbox. And, because it automatically deletes any messages in my spam folder after 30-days, I never have to worry about the chore of manually cleaning out those messages.

Instead, I can just sit back and marvel as the message number goes up, and up, and up…
