Statistically, 90% of all emails sent by email around the world are spam. Not surprisingly, getting rid of these annoying ads isn't easy. Although there are certain ways to solve the problem.
It is necessary
- - coordinates of the service center of your mailbox;
- - a program for identifying spam.
Instructions
Step 1
Log into your inbox and carefully examine all emails that you suspect of spam. If your messages are really advertising in nature, and you are sure that you yourself did not subscribe to the mailing list, then in the mail service window activate the "Spam" or "Report spam" function. It is supported by most of the popular email services. After that, the portal's security service will take note of this address and analyze it. If the fact of unauthorized distribution of advertising materials is confirmed, the mailbox will be blocked, and spam from this address will no longer appear.
Step 2
Activate the "Delete spam forever" function if your mail service supports it. This function allows you to add a contact to the blacklist, and even if the status of the spam sender is refuted, the messages from this addressee will not be delivered to your mailbox. At the same time, all messages from this sender that are stored in other folders in the mailbox are cleared. In some mail services this function is called the "Black List", but after its activation, already received letters will have to be deleted manually.
Step 3
Install an antispam program that detects and eliminates spam before it reaches your Inbox. Such products integrate directly with the mail service, and when spam is detected, it instantly blocks it. In this case, all suspicious letters will be stored in a folder specially designated for this. Modern software manufacturers provide a wide range of such programs, which can also be purchased with an antivirus package. This method is especially convenient for users of mail programs.
Step 4
Use the services of anti-spam services. They do not require software to be installed on your computer, but work on a subscription basis. Otherwise, their actions are absolutely identical to anti-spam programs.
