OT: This address will stop working soon.

[Paul Keating]

This address will stop working soon. I receive an unacceptable quantity of spam there, so I have had to set my spam filter to the most aggressive setting. The problem with that is, it often traps incoming fake definitions. (I suppose it’s a spam filter’s job to flag fake emails.)

For this reason, in November 2024, I set up a special dedicated email address for definitions, defin...@boargules.com, and I have been pleading with players to use that address ever since. It hasn’t worked. In every round I’ve dealt (nearly 20 of them), incoming definitions have ended up buried in spam, because players preferred to use an address from their contact list. This time around, I found four of them among the dross.

I’ve decided it’s time to give up. The address at the top of this post will stop working shortly, and after that, messages you send to it will bounce.
