I expect a lot of us do. In my case, each campaign gets a separate e-mail address so I can track how much they pass the addresses around. (Nothing surprising, local passes them to national for the same party, stuff like that.) While I was supposed to be doing something else, I wrote some scripts to track the mail, per campaign. You can see the results, updated daily, at https://www.taugh.com/polispam.php. If it looks like one day the Republican presidential campaign sent me 15 separate messages, yup, they did. It's not entirely clear what their strategy is because they keep telling me that I am one of their TOP 100 SUPPORTERS even though I've never sent them a dime. posted at: 14:24 :: permanent link to this entry :: 1 comments Stable link is https://jl.ly/Email/polispam.html	Topics Copyright Law - 32 Email - 228 ICANN - 128 Internet - 74 Money - 31 Security - 4 My other sites Who is this guy?
