9777 Unopened Junk EMails!! HELP? - GoFuckYourself.com

Xster · 09-27-2003, 11:31 PM

I made the mistake about 12 months ago joining over 10 different 4 free programs to see how they were cashing in on their subscribers, now a year later I have over 9777 unopened junk emails.

I have unsubscribed to EVERY 4free program that I originally joined. Now I am getting mail from every company under the sun, mainstream and porn sites.

I try every day to unsubscribe myself to the new junk emails coming in but it just gets worse. I have about 10 different email addresses from different domains I own. Do you have any advice on how to end this shit?

I know I could shut all my email addresses off and create a new one and just give it to friends, thats one way. Couldnt I send out an auto reply to every new email with a link to a page that has my new email? But im sure that would just get me listed again on more junk list. Uggh!!! any help would be greatly appreciated.

you sign up to join4free programs and then complain about the shit in your inbox?

Use Mozilla, it's got a pretty potent filter.

set up rules in outlook to send certain keywords, emails, etc straight to the junk folder. i did it on mine, and even though it doesnt get all of them... it gets a lot. when you sign up for stuff like that create a hotmail or yahoo email and use that. also when i sign up for programs instead of using my real email i put [email protected] so when i get the junk, i know who sold my email.

use the new Netscape, it filters junk like mad, not all, but pretty accurate, and you don't need to set rules, it "learns"

Listen to Burnie. I tried most of the filters and spampal is the best. Uses a collection of blocklists and keyword filtering(Regex) to dump the spam in the trash where it belongs. Nice integration with outlook express.

Report the most obnoxious spammers with spamcop.net. They have a free and pay service.
