Too many spammers! Yep, I've had to take down any and every email address at this site simply because I get too much of spam. Unfortunately, it also means, those who need to get back in touch need to use the Guestbook (which btw, goes through aggressive spam filters too).

Of late, I've been getting a new kind of spam. I guess some a** gives an email address like  his-first-name@subodh dot com and signs up for a new google or orkut account. I wouldn't know if the (verification emails or the forgot password) emails I received are spam or genuine efforts by some lame duck internet newbie trying to make a quick impression. Some of these emails even turn out to be sad but hilarious (to me) incidents when such fakers send out emails to real recipients (and have their from address that does not even exist!)

So, here's a little piece of advice for these nut-cases; Sober up, if you really needed that email address so bad, you could have just asked politely via the Guestbook. In any other case, its just hitting a /dev/null
