SpamStopsHere.com Stats
September 29, 2004
A while back I added SpamStopsHere.com to my list of recommend services/solutions. Of course, it’s still the only entry in that category, but that’s mainly because I can’t ever remember to recommend a product.
For this post, I just wanted to show you some of the stats that I am seeing right now with regard to email:
| Month | Spam | Valid | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Feb 2004 | 18,594 | 432 | 19,026 |
| Mar 2004 | 20,564 | 996 | 21,560 |
| Apr 2004 | 22,428 | 520 | 22,948 |
| May 2004 | 23,377 | 618 | 23,995 |
| Jun 2004 | 28,360 | 497 | 28,857 |
| Jul 2004 | 47,191 | 456 | 47,647 |
| Aug 2004 | 68,489 | 597 | 69,086 |
| Sep 2004 | 76,417 | 681 | 77,098 |
% of Spam calculation does not include the counts from non-existant mailbox, virus, and tarpit filtering.
It’s hard to believe that the amount of spam directed at my personal domain has gone up 400% since the beginning of this year. 77K spam emails for the first 28 days of September comes out to 2,700 spam emails a day coming this way. The best part? I see maybe one every couple of days. Thanks again, SpamStopsHere!
