Agree or Disagree Spam

I Disagree spam because spamming is not good maybe it is good for others who are making it but not for the majority. Spamming is just flooding the Internet with many copies of the same message, in an attempt to force the message on people who would not otherwise choose to receive it.


10 Tips to Fight Spam

1. Use Spam Filters.

When email was originally designed in SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) there was no reason to authenticate email message senders because email was originally only for trusted users such university researchers.

2. Eliminate Viruses.

Spam still slips through filters, and sometimes delivers viruses that then turns your computer into a spamming machine without you even knowing.

3. Keep Your Email Account Safe.

Email users can do their part to reduce spam. When you sign up for something online, read the details carefully and uncheck checkboxes for additional offers.

4. Test Who Is Spamming You.

When you sign up for something online, sites usually say they won't sell your info. Unfortunately, some do, or their employees do.

6. Opt-Out Letters.

Online newsletters are a great way to bring the content you want directly to your inbox.

7. Pick The Right Email Address.

One way to reduce spam is to choose your email address carefully.

8. Tailor Your Surfing To Minimize Viruses and Spam.

Let's face it, there are three primary types of websites that can be a source of viruses and spam: adult, gambling, and gaming.

9. Report Violators.

The report any spammers and ask the authority to help deal with spam violators.

10. Get Revenge?
