If you have a good ISP and you're running your own business, you should
receive _all_ the spam, because no business can afford to miss
legitimate e-mail simply because it's ISP has decided to filter its
mail.

ISP filtering is only for unsophisticated, private Internet users.
Anyone running a business needs unfiltered e-mail service.

Nikon still makes at least one manual body, although other brands, such
as Leica, are probably a safer bet (as long as Leica doesn't turn into a
worthless Rolex under pressure from one of its owners).
