I have been on the Net for a very long time and these days even with all the SPAM filters either I still get the junk or some emails that I may be expecting get filtered and put into the junk folder. I have not decided to get an email just for personal contacts. I originally thought about getting a free Yahoo email address but after trying it out for several months I noticed a lot more junk being added to the junk I was already getting. Because of this I now have a private email address on one of the websites I created.

Now there are some benefits to getting junk mail that I want to go over in some detail. I used to collect all the junk email because I figured if the subject line was good enough to get my attention then chance are it would do the same for other people. I also look at the bodies of the message looking for good ad copy. There are hundreds of books and courses out there teaching you about copywriting but how do you know what actually works?

Some junk emails are put together pretty good and they can teach you a lot about copywriting. Some are blatant junk though especially the ones advertising things like Viagra, organ enlargement, or even penny stock picks. I use Outlook Express to receive emails and I have a lot of filters in place, rules. But when the text is embedded into an html email for some reasons the rules I have set up have just decided to ignore these messages and let them fill up my Inbox.

I have given serious though to having one private email address for family, another for friends, and yet another for newsletters that I want to receive. I know this might look like I'm going overboard here but it would end a lot of my frustrations with having to read through all the emails that fill up my inbox each and every day.

It seems the holiday season always means more spam mail. As you await important messages from family and friends, your inbox overflows while you're out shopping because of unwanted spam. Nobody wants to be exposed so how do these tenacious spammers find you anyway?
Spam plagues email inboxes around the globe. The cost of spam for businesses and individuals can be steep. From unwanted solicitations to identity theft, spam is a serious issue. Endless hours are spent on spam damage control. A spam filter helps to eliminate these annoying and potentially dangerous communications. Recently Ferris Research revealed the worldwide cost of spam totaled $100 billion in 2007. A spam filter makes life easier by clearing up files.

Nowadays, many of us receive e-mail invitations to join social networking websites such as Facebook, LinkedIn, or MySpace. Even if you know the sender and name of a social network to which you've been invited, before you click on an invitation response link, take a second and consider that not all invitation e-mails are what they seem. Some fraudulent "friends" and "social networks" could have drastic consequences to your security and privacy.
Spam celebrated its 30th birthday last month and it's doubtful that anyone that ever owned an email address is singing its praises. In May 1978, 393 employees of Arpanet received the first ever spam email in history from another company called Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) advertising their new computer systems.
For many companies spam is a serious issue, one that can affect the productivity of their employees. A recent study showed that the average computer user can spend 20 to 40 minutes every day, just wading through spam. For a small business the time spent could be like having a full-time employee on staff just to deal with spam or junk email, which constitutes more than half of the global traffic of e-mail, according to the latest report of the global computer security company Symantec.
More than 180 billion spam messages are sent out each day to over 1 billion Internet users. Many companies are working hard to solve the spam problem, but the first step to stopping spam starts with the consumer.
The term Spam is thought to be derived from a Monte Python skit. But the fact that Spam makes up over 80 percent of emails sent isn't that funny!
