Are you a junk mail "forwarder"?

I admit I will from time to time forward an e-mail about friendship but all those "you will have bad luck if you don't forward to 10 friends in 10 minutes" really starts to annoy me. Makes me think some people just have too much time on their hands. Do you forward all those e-mails you get from your friends or just delete them?

When I first got e-mail, I would send it on, because I thought no one has ever seen this before..*ignorance is bliss,lol* then I caught on that some of those have been going around for years. So unless it is something that I really want to share with someone, I delete it..

I am not one that forwards a lot of e-mail unless it is something important that my family and friends should know about. I do find some of the things that are sent to me rather cute, but since I have been told by a great quantity of my family and friends that they don't want that sort of e-mail sent to them, I stay true to their wishes and just delete it after reading it.

I used to be, when I first had computer access and my family and friends would send me this type of emails. But I started getting so many, it was ridiculous, that I became picky and only forwarded the ones that I thought were cute or contained informative information. But now when I get them I tend to delete them. Most of the family members that sent them to me have caught on as they don't send them so much anymore. :P

Hi Happymommy3, I used to forward them to my other friends if I get them from one friend. But, I've grown out of that now. Anymore, I delete them or read them first, if I like them, I'll keep them in my Inbox for awhile before deleting them completely.
