How to Deal with Email Spam

Email spam is a constant problem on the Internet. While there's no perfect solution that will keep your email mailbox clean, there are many simple steps you can take to alleviate the problem. The Australian Communications and Media Authority have compiled some information on how to deal with spam and suggestions for potentially avoiding it. For more information visit their website here.

Some simple tips for avoiding spam is -

• Do not reply to spam email. Once you reply you will end up with more spam
• Do not click on the "To be removed from this mailing list" option - this will confirm your email address and more spam will be sent to you
• Do not use your email address on suspect websites or signup forms as they may use / sell your address to spammers

Simply delete the spam email or forward it to us here at Dreamtilt so that we may block it for all our users.
