DO:
> Change your email address regularly.
Create an address that is difficult to guess.
For example, if your name is Kevin Smith
and you love cycling, try an address like
KSmith4biking@cup.org. Or if
you live in Toronto, you could use
KS_in_Toronto@cup.org.
> Have two email addresses - one for public
use and a private one only for friends and
family.
> Buy anti-spam software or use email
filters. Many email programs have filters
that automatically send spam to a junk-mail folder. Be sure to check the
junk-mail folder periodically for any
personal mail that goes there by mistake.
>Pay attention to typos and misspellings in
email subject lines. These are warning
signs of possible spam.
Don't:
>Respond to spam - ever. When you
respond, you confirm that your address is
valid.
>Buy anything from a company that sent
you spam, This supports their belief that
spamming makes money.
