  Do you hate SPAM email?  
                         
 

Spam is that annoying, unsolicited email that crams into your inbox and jams up the bandwidth all around the world. The biggest problem with spam email is that the marketer or advertiser does not have to foot the bill for any part of the campaign. It doesn't cost them anything to send out millions of unsolicited emails nor do they have to pay for the time all of this email sits on multiple email servers around the world. Besides being annoying, this information can also be degrading, demeaning, and immoral.

If you have had it with spammers, you can now do something about it. First, educate yourself on the spamming problem and what is being done to change it. The Coalition Against Unsolicited Commercial Email (CAUCE) is in the forefront of that struggle. Their website is informative and up-to-date. Writing your Senator and representatives because there are currently several bills pending in both arenas. You may want to join CAUCE. Make your voice be heard -- it won't just go away by itself.

There are tons of sites that deal with this issue. There is one that links most of these sources, so you might want to check it out. This anti-spam site is very simplistic but very good.

Don't give up!
