Are you sick and tired of spam relentlessly
spewing into your Inbox? So was I, until I learned how to knock
it out, or at least slow it down to an Acceptable Level.
We are all suffering from e-mail Spam,
it is one of the biggest problems, if not the biggest problem
we suffer using the Internet today. Well you no longer have
to, this product is fantastic and will stop Spam dead in its
tracks. Give it a trial for free.
This easy to set up
little program lets you preview e-mail before downloading it.
You see all the usual details - sender, subject, size - but
with one big difference: you can decide BEFORE downloading it
if you want it.
This makes the difference, but what makes
Mailwasher great is it's ability to Bounce unwanted spam right
back to the sender, marked 'message undeliverable.'
To the spammer it looks as if your e-mail
address is no longer active, and hopefully, the next time
they "clean" their list, your e-mail address will fall off.
But even if it does not, Mailwasher adds the spammer's address
to a blacklist. The next time they spam you, it's already marked
for deletion. (You can always unmark it if you should feel you
wish to receive it.)
When you are finished "washing" your mail
of spam and unwanted downloads, click "process mail" and you are
taken to your e-mail programme where you then click "send and
receive" and whatever messages are left will be downloaded from
Mailwasher as normal.
I have a lot of e-mail addresses, so you can
imagine the flood of spam that poured in my mailbox every day.
Now, I run them all through Mailwasher first, and it has made
a huge difference.
To further reduce spam, Mailwasher has
another trick that your regular e-mail programmes do not.
It learns. There are all kinds of settings, filters, sorts
and alerts. The more you use it, the more it learns what you
do and do not want to see. It does lots of stuff that I have
not even tried. But for what I need - quick and dirty spam
elimination - it works great.
Best of all, you can try it for free.
If you like it, and I am sure you will love it, you must then
buy it, but beleive me, you will not want to be without it.
One of the ways that spammers get your
e-mail address is through harvesting programmes that crawl the
net grabbing e-mail addresses off websites, message boards,
newsgroups. In fact anywhere they can find something that looks
like an e-mail address, they just grab it. The way that they know
it's an e-mail address is by looking for 'mailto' or
the '@' symbol.
There are programmes available some are
also free - that will encode your e-mail address for you.
This converts your ASCII e-mail address into it's
equivalent decimal entity.

Encoded e-mail addresses can be read and
translated back into the original ASCII text by almost any
web browser, so you can use encoding wherever you can use HTML.
Unfortunately not all forums will let you
use HTML. In those cases, you could use a "throwaway" e-mail
address such as from Yahoo or hotmail when posting to
public places.
