Junk Email

Who are these people who keep sending all this junk email? I receive more junk in my inbox than actual email that I want.

Why is it so difficult to shut these people down? How many of them are there? A lot of the junk I receive seems to come from the same people over and over again.

I tend to find junk mail filters aren't terribly effective. Every so often the junk mail filter will catch some mailing list item which I want to receive, which means I have to check through my junk mail folder all the time anyway. So even though it's in a separate folder, I still have to sift through it.

Just like one does not know who are the people really who make viruses and send them to you , you really cant trace spammers . if that would have been possible banishing spam would have been so easier , but they do get some benefit of course otherwise they would not be sending that at all . yes ,as you said it is difficult to stop spam once you get caught in that. but you can prevent your email from being caught by just keeping t private and not giving it at every other website ,
