Microsoft chairman Bill Gates receives four million emails a day, and is probably the most "spammed" person in the world.
But unlike ordinary users, the software mogul has an entire department to filter unsolicited emails and only a few of them actually get through to his inbox, Microsoft chief executive Steve Ballmer said yesterday.
"There are two people who probably are the number one spam recipients in the world," Ballmer said referring to Gates and himself.
"Bill Gates (is number one) because he is Bill Gates. Bill literally receives four million pieces of email per day, most of it spam," Balmer told a conference.
"And so we have special technology which just filters (spam).
"Literally, there's a whole department, almost, that takes care of it."
Ballmer said he was "probably also amongst the most spammed people in the world" because he gave out his email address - steveb@microsoft.com - in all his public speeches.
"I receive many pieces of spam (but) only about 10 of them actually make it into my inbox because of the spam technologies that our IT department implements."
