Set up a huge email server with no spam protection and sign up participants. At a designated time, they’re all giving a randomly generated email address. The participants have one week to sign up on as many newsletters, porn sites, etc as possible. The winner would have the most spam in their inbox at
the end of the week. Various rules would apply. It would be an absolutely useless but rather interesting sport.

did you know that leaving a pc hooked up
to the internet with no surfing and no virus
protection will net you at least three

there should be an extra category for
people who can get their computers to
become zombies and start propagating
spam. |

This may be off topic, but I know someone who once had over 10,000 unread messages in his bulk. |

Maybe we know the same guy. He had 12000 unread messages in his work email, 9000 of which being notifications that his mailbox was over its size limit. This fact was exposed after it was noted that he didn't reply to any emails. The crazy coot had never opened his mailbox in several years of employment. |

Off topic, but I know an engineer who deliberately pulled the same trick with his voicemail. |
