Spam? No Thanks, We're Full - Janet Kornblum
The number of spam messages sent increased nearly 300 percent from 2001 to 2002 -- from 14,078,511 to 55,683,103, according to e-mail filtering company Brightmail. If you think you're getting more spam than ever, you're right. Spam -- junk e-mail -- has dramatically increased in the past year, studies have shown. And next year will be even worse, one new report says. It predicts that by July, the volume of spam sent to business e-mail addresses will exceed the amount of regular e-mail.
