Because of my public expose from various web pages and web sites I operate, I receive a huge volume of email, hundreds per day.\u00a098% of that email is total spam junk. My filters do a great job of trashing that part of it but they are not perfect. I do scan\u00a0the spam pile\u00a0very quickly before final annihilation and very occasionally I find something I do want to read.<\/p>\n<p>The point is that spam pile gets about 10 seconds of my time per day. If a good\u00a0email doesn&#8217;t grab my attention in the scrap pile in that 10 second scan, then it is gone forever. I figure if it looks like a spam, the filters thought it was spam,\u00a0then it is a spam. If I don&#8217;t respond to an email it is probably because it looked like a spam to me!<\/p>\n<p>We all know what spam headers look like. They are easily recognizable. If I get a good email in a similar format, it is going to be a goner. So the lesson is to be sure you are not using a service that caters to spammers, as the entire domain is probably filtered out.\u00a0Use meaningful titles to messages that don&#8217;t read like the dribble spammers use.<\/p>\n<p>So if I don&#8217;t respond, it&#8217;s probably not because I don&#8217;t want to.
