How much spam do you receive in your inbox every day?

10 messages? 50 messages? More?

Personally, I get well over 100 spam emails every day. My anti-spam filter gets most of them out of my inbox, but at some point during the day I need to scan the spam mailbox in case it flagged a message by mistake.

And then there’s the free email accounts I use. I’ve got a Gmail account and a Hotmail account that I use for things I don’t want in my main email.

I don’t check them as often, but I still need to scan the spam folder once in a while to make sure something didn’t go there by mistake.

Imagine how much time gets wasted by people around the world who have to deal with this junk every day.

What could be done with that time if it wasn’t spent dealing with email?

Something needs to be done to get rid of this problem and I don’t think it’s going to change until someone comes up with an entirely new system for sending and receiving email.
