Dealing With Spam
Nothing is more annoying than Inbox spam. It seems inevitable that the longer you have an e-mail account the more spam you get on a daily basis.
Before you know it your Inbox is filled with unwanted e-mail. Twenty e-mail accounts and ten years later and I’m starting to get tired of switching. Here are some of the tricks that I use to keep spam to a minimum. The last time I switched e-mail accounts, I kept my old one as a junk account. When you think about it, you kind of know which companies are safe to give your e-mail address to (Amazon, Ebay, any major retailer or organization). If you feel uneasy about giving out your address to enter a sweepstakes, join a mailing list, or whatever; give the address to the junk account. Check it once a month to clean it out and to make sure there are no real e-mails. These are definitely times for the junk or bogus address.
