How do you handle spam mail? My wife says just block and delete but there has to be some program to help. Do you have any thoughts on this? And WHERE do they get our names?

Well, from cyberspace. Actually, there are many companies who sell email lists, and many also harvest emails from other sites that do not have high security measures.

There are also many companies who do bulk emails for fees that is.

Hi seabhs,

Well, spam mail, one time only that is, is no diferrent than junk mail via snail mail.

It is so easy to just hit the delete button, rather anticipating in a major frustration of reporting them to their isp, getting mad,etc.

As to the intentional harvesting and spamming of users on other sites, well then there are the legal consequenses. This is theft at its finest.

The law came about the use of fax machines to spam, and cyber spam is no diferrence.

I don't even attempt to read it. To save the hassle of typing emails to ISP's, just suck it up & Delete!!!
