lame reply

Blogger Support replied to my query a few days ago:

Hi there,

You may want to change your mail-to-blogger 'secret word' so that others
will not be able to figure out this word to email a post to your blog.

Please see our Blogger Help article for more details:

Best regards,

i don't buy this reply. even if i change my secret word, there is no guarantee that this will never happen again. there is no email address in this world that can't be kept secret to spammers.

heck, if Gmail can proudly say "Hooray, no spam here!" everytime i check my spam folder (and i am very thankful for that), then Blogger ought to put in place a spam filter for their mail-to-blogger feature.
