Since today, I have been blogging for nine years and this is my 396th post on miapple.me -Tech.Blog! I published my first blog post “My First Apple Anniversary on January 21st, 2012!” on miapple.me on January 21st, 2012. Exactly 10 years after I got addicted to the Apple world (my first Apple product was an iPhone 4), I can look back to a very exciting year 2020. After the increasing 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year and 4th year, the 5th year, 6th year, 7th year, 8th year and, especially, the 9th year of miapple.me were five years of consolidation.

Apple iCloud Mail blocks outbound emails (silent filtering) and inbound emails (spam filtering) containing specific, blacklisted strings. iCloud Mail screens the content of the email before sending it.

It is not a buzzing you hear, you feel it with you run your fingers through the metal case.
