Boxbe Spams


Courtesy of Daniel:

That was a while ago but they've started sending poorly disguised spam in the form of "notification" emails. Here's the one I received:

Hello Daniel,

I've received your message entitled "Re: [Open Manufacturing] Re:
DIYBio: Oranges without the tree?". I wanted to let you know that I've
added you to my Boxbe Guest List.

Boxbe helps me manage my email by prioritizing messages from people I
know. You'd be amazed at how much better my inbox is now.

This is the only email you will receive about Boxbe from me and there
is no need to respond.

Thank you,

The bit about "to keep your inbox clean and make sure you receive email from people who matter to you" is particularly ironic.
