In Gmail, Google has good measurements against spam (not perfect, but good). Added to that perhaps a manual whitelist and blacklist would be neat. This doesn't seem to be possible in Gmail either... sometimes even people I actively replied to several times are then ending up in the spam folder for a new mail of theirs...Philipp Lenssenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09340991515644165702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-42400674535959963692007-06-16T01:44:00.000-07:002007-06-16T01:44:00.000-07:00I won't be at all surprised if you see some spam-f...I won't be at all surprised if you see some spam-filter come to Blogger comments in the near future, now that everyone is on the new platform.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-31159772836839238732007-06-15T08:02:00.000-07:002007-06-15T08:02:00.000-07:00This widget comment spam is popping up a lot latel...This widget comment spam is popping up a lot lately.
