9.1.6 FAQS on other related issues
How to avoid receiving Spam
A. Think before you give out your e-mail address
Try to avoid giving your main e-mail address on web sites, chat rooms, newsgroups or to companies. There are many places online that provide free e-mail accounts. You could set up a separate account to use when signing up to an Internet service or for online shopping. This way your main e-mail address cannot be “harvested” by spammers. Avoid forwarding chain letters or petitions. These lists of addresses can be used by spammers.
B. Never reply to Spam
This includes the notorious “click here to unsubscribe” trick. While it looks as if you are being given a chance to opt out of receiving further unsolicited e-mail, in fact you will be letting the spammer know that your e-mail address is active, leading to yet more Spam being sent. Don’t click it – just delete the e-mail.
You should also avoid trying to Spam the spammers, you will end up being blacklisted as a spammer yourself.
C. Blocks and Filters
Your email service may have spam blocking features already. Have a look for the pages on “spam” or “junk mail” in the ‘Help’ section of the Webmail service. If you are downloading emails onto your home PC, then email your Internet Service Provider or search their website to find out about Spam blocking services they may offer. There are various software programs to help you block Spam.
