Well I personaly think it that unsolicited junk email should be stoped. I like the ones that with instructions on how to get your email account taken off their lists by sending a single, simple email message. The ones I don't like are the ones that make you go to some website to do it. And the ones I HATE are the ones that don't instruct at ALL on how to be removed. When I was on AOL I got fed up and changed the email settings so that ONLY individuals to whome I give permision to in a list on my account will be able to send messages to me. I'm not on AOL anymore, but I had no choice really. I was getting like 200 messages a day, all porno spam crap!! The really bad ones are messages that are untraceable and ask you to give your password to the person who sent the message to you. They must be stoped somehow. ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO! Juno offers FREE or PREMIUM Internet access for less! Join Juno today!
