Electronic Mail
Don't Respond to Unsolicited Mail
SUMMARY: Help keep even more junk mail from reaching your inbox.
It may be tempting to respond to spam messages, telling the sender that you want to be taken off their mailing list. However, this may prove quite ineffective. Many times, if you respond to such email, you are just telling the spammer that "Hey, my e-mail address is read by a live person!" Thus, you could end up just getting more spam.
However, if you do receive email from a reputable mailing list and want to stop getting such email, it is OK to politely ask to be removed from such a list. Many reputable email lists even contain links that you can click to be removed from such lists.
