To any of you who are in an Advice-Giving Mood, 

 

So, as I said, my Spam has tripled in the last few weeks.  I have been
assiduously accumulating spam messages I a folder and am now wondering if
there is anything I can do with them.  One obvious thing I might do is click
on the link that says, "Please don't send me any more messages like this."
But, of course, I have been told to NEVER click on any link in a message I
suspect for any reason.  So, then I look the organization up on the web,
thinking that if the have a website that Earthlink's WebAdvisor doesn't
hate, maybe I am safe to click the opt out link, but that takes a time, and,
of course, the web message could always be a spoof.  So, then I am back to
doing nothing. 

 

Anybody got better than nothing as a strategy?
