Are You Sick Of Junk E-Mail
How To Be Spam-Free

Into every life a little spam must fall. No, not the canned lunch meat -- "spam" is another name for junk e-mail, usually advertisements. You're an intelligent person and you know that no one will pay you $30,000 a month to stuff envelopes. You have to be a CEO to see that kind of money. So how do you end these unwanted missives once and for all?

Spam messages are like mosquitoes -- you can repel them, but you can't kill every one. Of course, whenever you receive a spam message with directions on how to unsubscribe, do this as if your life depended on it. Using a "bozo filter" will help by deleting the message before it reaches your in-box. You can also try a bulk e-mail "remove" service such as Junk Mail Junction, which will remove your name from some popular spammers' hit lists.

No matter what you try, spam won't disappear entirely. It's perfectly legal "legitimate advertising," so it remains as persistent as New York roaches, and almost as annoying.
