If you think you can handle spam your own way, forget it! It is impossible to surf the web without protecting your computer and mailbox with anti-spam software.
Traditionally, anti-spam software comes in three different forms - as email plug-ins, stand-alone programs and server-based email spam filters. The email plug-ins receives all spam related messages and downloads them before sorting and signaling the authorities about it. Some types of software blacklists the spam IP addresses, notifies their Internet service providers and blocks them. Some software depends on the user to mark their spam messages and set to work on them based on the user information provided. So far, the best known anti spam software is Bayesian filtering since it follows no rules in its combat against spam. It continues reinvent itself by scanning your read mails with spam ones and thus learning more about new spam technology.

Hindsight is 20/20, and I could kick myself for not taking this strategy very seriously, as my email newsletter list is my gold mine because it's filled with subscribers who already know something about me.

My name is ..., and I know you don't know me, but I know you, as I've been reading your newsletter for a couple of years now."
