Doug's Anti Spam Log - Introduction
Once upon a time there was a man. He made a terrible mistake. He was filling out an online form and he didn't notice that there was a little box that said "Uncheck this box if you don't want to receive emails from us and our affiliates." Now his inbox is filled with spam.
Once upon a time there was a man. He made a terrible mistake. He sent those silly urban legend emails to all his friends, not realizing that sooner or later those emails end up in the hands of spammers, who have a grand time harvesting the email addresses from the message headers. Now his inbox is filled with spam.
Once upon a time there was a man. He made a terrible mistake. He visited a discussion forum, and didn't see any reason to check the box that said "Make my email address private". Now his inbox is filled with spam.

I have gotten the one about Dr. Dobson's fight with MM O'hare for years. Even before the Internet, people were telling me about it. I have contacted Focus on the Family and our local Christian radio station more than once just to make sure this was not real. They have both assured me that it is not true.
Thank you for taking the time to post and update your blog. You provide valuable information.
