How to reduce the amount of spam emails Print

  • 160

There are several steps you can take to reduce the amount of spam emails you receive:

  1. Mark spam emails as spam: Most email providers have a way for you to mark emails as spam, which can help train the provider's spam filter to better identify unwanted messages in the future.

  2. Use a spam filter: Many email providers have built-in spam filters that can help automatically sort unwanted messages into a separate folder. You can also use third-party spam filters that can be added to your email client.

  3. Don't respond to spam emails: Responding to spam emails, even to unsubscribe, confirms to the sender that your email address is active, which can lead to more spam.

  4. Be cautious when giving out your email address: Be selective about who you give your email address to and avoid providing it on websites or forms that are not trustworthy.

  5. Use a disposable email address: Some services allow you to generate a disposable email address for use on sites or forms that you don't trust.

  6. Block unwanted emails: You can create a block list of email addresses and domains from which you don't want to receive email.

  7. Use encryption: Use encryption to protect your email from being read by anyone other than the intended recipient.
