Unpredictable. Unfocused. Just like life.

Up until this morning I had a default email routing setup for my domain so that all mail that came to the domain was forwarded to one particular email address that I check regularly. I've been receiving a few "failed delivery" emails, responses from spam emails with a forged return address of my domain. Not a big problem I thought until I woke up this morning to about 2000 of them, rendering my inbox almost unusable.

So I've removed the default forwarding.

As I think about it though I realize just how much the problem of spam has grown in just a few months. Thousands of emails are seemingly being sent from my domain. Imagine how much spam well known domains must generate. I'd hate to calculate the likely billions of dollars of lost productivity caused by this ridiculous problem.

So folks, if you've received a spam email from my domain please accept my apology. Just keep in mind that it wasn't really me.

Update: Apparently my hosting provider is a bit slow on the uptae, as I just received 400 more such emails.
