More Sympatico fun

Oh, those jokers at Sympatico. Today they breathlessly advised me (in a message sent three times) that they have “enhanced” my e-mail service and added “new, complimentary features.”

The first new feature was that I couldn’t access my mail until I changed my password. Sympatico offered links to help members “configure” their e-mail, assuming of course that we all use Microsoft products. I don’t. The link I got (for “other”) might as well have told me I was on my own. Fortunately, it seems that Eudora is handling the change on its own but I’ll have to get through today to know for sure.

One of my other new features is an “enhanced junk mail filter,” which in the same e-mail delivery as the three Sympatico messages let through three Viagra spams. The next delivery had eight spam messages. So much for that enhancement.
