Stopping Unwanted E-mail

Where does spam start? Spam, or unwanted E-mail, can start for many reasons. Anytime you submit your E-mail address for any reason, you have the possibility of receiving spam. Don't suspect all web sites, though, as many protect your E-mail address. (You can often find out about how web sites protect your personal information by reading their Privacy Policy.)

You should always protect your E-mail address when submitting it on the Internet. If you don't trust the site, don't provide an E-mail address, or if an E-mail address is required, use a "fake" address (described below).

When you sign up for any services, or download any products, don't generally use your regular E-mail address. Keep your E-mail address for personal or business use.

Tip: If the majority of your E-mail is spam which you can't seem to stop, you may want to consider getting a new E-mail address. Contact your ISP about this. Then, be sure to use a service like Spamex when submitting your E-mail address on the Internet.

Spam is annoying, but by being sure that your E-mail address is protected on the Internet is the first step.
