Do you read junk email?

I only login to my accounts from my browser a few times a week. Everything in AOL's spam folder gets deleted right away, because I know it's not from anyone I know. I always check Bluebottle's pending folder, though. Pretty much everything there is important. I think one or two spammers have actually been uninformed enough to try spamming me at Bluebottle since I opened the account a few years ago; almost all spammers know what Bluebottle is, and they stay away from it. My Yahoo! account is almost ten years old, and probably on just about every spammer's blast list by now. I only keep it as a honeypot these days, and to complete that occasional registration process when I don't really want to receive any newsletters (or offers). I check my Yahoo! inbox every couple days, forwarding every phishing letter to the SEC, and every viagra offer to the FDA. :)

99.99% of junk email is used to sell something. Therefore, people will always send them since so many are trying to sell something (or rip off others). I seldom read them and mostly delete them. I don't get as many as in years past. I don't know why.

I'm with you - if I don't know who or where it's from it gets deleted. People must be opening them or there wouldn't be so many. I am thankful for filters and the delte all buttons!

I am agreeing with you on that one as well. I don even bother taking a look at them it makes no sense i also dont look at them just in case of virus. I love my computer and its mine lol.
