Questions on spam (assuming this message gets through): Suppose I
receive a spam message with a forged but legitimate "From" address, and
then I report that message as spam to the email service provider. Will
that cause legitimate email messages from that legitimate "From" address
to be identified also as spam?
I realize this is a general and vague question, but really, is it better
to report spam or just delete it? Note: The messages I'm referring to
are phishing messages with fraudulent links where what you see is not
what you get, for example, <a
href="http://[evil-domain-name]/update.html">https://[legit-domain-name]/IdentityManagement/</a>.
I hate this. I also hate the volume of stupid spam that clogs dummy
accounts I set up just to observe the situation and observe the changing
techniques, but that's a different issue.
BTW, I also got a spam message with an evil link exhorting me to
download Tor. What can anyone tell me about Tor itself?
Thanks in advance.
