Answer 1

there is nothing we can do...we are all doomed...

Answer 2

I doubt there is a way to completely stop getting junk mail. To start with, use a good mail service. Most free emails have junk for spam but the bad ones just don't catch all the spam. But you don't want to receive spam it is a must that you don't leave your email address anywhere for public view.

Answer 3

Once your email address is on a spammers list it is almost impossible to get off. Right now, your e-mail address (along with millions of others) is on a CD being sold from the back rooms of software shops from Bangladesh to Botswanna and from Norway to the Netherlands.

However there are several things that you can do to prevent even more spam.

1. Start by removing your e-mail address from your Yahoo profile,if it is on it. The spam-industry has programs that are continusously crawling the web looking for the "@" symbol which is a sure sign the the word before it and the domain name after it is an e-mail address!

2. Use a longer address. The spam industry uses programs that try sending e-mail to all known domain names. Example: a program might start trying to send out e-mails to everyone starting with [e-mail] and continue down to [e-mail]. Using a longer e-mail address will make this harder to do.

3. Never click the "Unsubscribe Link" in any e-mail. This will only confirm to the spammers that your e-mail address is indeed real and that you are reading their garbage. In fact, do not even open any e-mail from anybody you don't know or trust. Many spams are not only annoying but contain viruses of other malware. Just delete 'em without opening 'em!.
You can however click that "Unsubscribe Me" button from businesses that are well known and that you trust. Walmart... yes. Someone selling Viagra...no.

4. Open up a second e-mail account. Whenever, a website requires you to register using your e mail address, use this secondary address. There are many unscrupulous websites that will sell you address to others or bombard you with spam themselves.

5. Download a free copy of SiteAdvisor. SiteAdvisor will alert you when you search (Google, Yahoo, MSN, search only) of websites that are known to send out spam. This can help you avoid registering with any sites that are known to spam people.

Treat your e-mail address just like you would your telephone number or home address....only give it out to those that you absolutely trust!

Answer 4

Seriously, the only 100% effective way to stop getting junk mail is to stop using e-mail. You can cut down the volume you get by making sure you NEVER post your e-mail address in a public forum but even that isn't totally effective.

Answer 5

Yes acutally there is first the basic's we all know most e-mail services let you put spam into a the spam folder ben thingy but if you was to open it look in there look for a link remove me from so and so click on it put it on your e-mail 24-48 hours and no more e-mail from them it could take alot of time or could take a few 30 mins depending on how much spam you are getting :)

Answer 6

Answer 7

In the U.S., there isn't any way to get off the list for junk snail mail.

Answer 8

Yes, once you are dead, you will never see spam emails again. Other than that, it's a long road..........
Filters, address blocking, lots of work just so you can find 25 more spam emails the next day. This is why email sites/programs have a delete button.

Answer 9

Yes move.
