How do I get Care2 to stop sending me Email?
STOP opening them, Geri! Opening spam alerts the sender that your address is a valid one and they send you loads and loads more. You can not completely stop all spam, but you can help to put a big dent in it. Check mark them and click on 'Spam,' this should stop those addresses from being delivered to your inbox. Use your spam guard and block address. Look for the 'Options' link at upper right corner of mail screen and click on it Options /mail options Click on 'spam' in the list on the left. Make sure spam guard is on, by checking in the little box. Then in 'Blocked Email Addresses,' enter the E-mail address you wish blocked, in the box after 'Add a blocked address' and click on the 'add' button, then click on save changes at top left of screen. You will never get mail from that address again. This should help you to control your spam. Other tips: Do not ever open E-mail from people you do not know; and unless you are absolutely sure who it is from then treat them as spam. Never, ever give out your account information or other personal information to anyone. If you are on a site and you absolutely have to sign up for something, check the entire page to make sure you uncheck any lines wanting to send you any other info, notices, catalogs, ads, and the like. Added detail: Yes, spammers change one item in their addresses a lot, so you might try blocking the entire domain, by putting in *@ thedomainyouwanttoblock.com for instance: *@seeyou.com Or, if they change the domain, instead of the company name you can block the name by putting in Imatheft_inc@* Hope this helps
"Junk mail" is an important source of revenue for the postal service, and even if they wanted to throw it away for you, they are legally obligated to put it in your mailbox.Your solutions are:contact the mailer and ask them to remove you from their list. They probably won't, and it's probably more trouble than it's worth, but you never know. keep a recycle bin stationed in a handy location and toss anything that says "presort standard" or "prsrt std." This will be in the upper right corner. Bills and non-identicals are required to go first class, and so cannot be sent presort standard. Once you see "prsrt std" in that upper right corner, you can safely ignore any notices warning you about "second notice" or "response required" or scary looking legal consequences for anybody not delivering it according to this or that statute. They can get quite creative trying to convince you that the letter is important, but important letters can't be sent presort standard. (Note that "first class presort" will almost always be a bill or an important notice. You only want to toss the STD. It should be easy to remember those initials!)
I am not receiving my USPS mail reliably. What should I do?
I had this same problem just a few months ago. I called my local post office and demanded to speak to the supervisor. I got the run-a-round, but I kept on until I got the supervisor in person. My mail was being mis-delivered and I was getting other people's mail. One way that I finally got to speak with the supervisor was when I went to the local district office and complained above her head. You will have to look up these phone numbers in www.yellowpages.com or by dropping by your local post office and telling them that you want the phone numbers. Once I had the supervisor's attention, she put my mail on notice and every morning she reviewed all mail addressed to my house and then if I missed some mail or got someone else's mail I would call her and tell her and she would compare what I got or didn't get with what she counted and listed for me each morning. Finally, the delivery person learned that I was going to make such a stink and worry his boss so much that he started paying close attention to giving me the correct mail. SIDE NOTES: Do not listen to Jam's answer that it would be a bad idea to privatize the postal service. He is a pinko liberal who thinks the private sector is always the problem. Think about this? Who delivers packages more efficiently without hassles? Is it the US Postal Service or is it Fed Ex, UPS, and other private delivery services? Who makes a profit and doesn't need financial bailouts all the time? Is the the US Postal Service or is it Fed, UPS, and other private delivery services? Also, I'm not saying to privatize the US Postal Service, BUT rather to allow Fed Ex, UPS, and other private services to deliver envelope mail and I guarantee that we will see the US Postal Service provide better service. Liberals do not believe in competition as they imagine a global unrealistic "paradise" where there are no winners and there are no losers, which is crazy. But you can straighten out your mail situation by demanding to speak to the top supervisor at the post office that is directly responsible for your mail. You should not have to buy a PO box.
I keep getting emails from "horny" girls how do i get rid of those emails.?
It is called "SPAM," Stephany. You treat them as you woukld any other spam mails. STOP opening them! Opening spam alerts the sender that your address is a valid one and they send you loads and loads more. You can not completely stop all spam, but you can help to put a big dent in it. Check mark them and click on 'Spam,' this should stop those addresses from being delivered to your inbox. Use your spam guard and block address.

How do you get rid of this email spam about Viagra?
go into the "rules" section of you e-mail and just tell it to automatically remove all e-mails containing the word viagra . I do this for every kind of junk that s being send to me and nowadays I almost don t get any junk at all. Though, if your girlfriend ever decides to tell you the painfull truth over e-mail, you won t get the message ;)
You get them because you hit unsubscribe. Pretty much the only way to stop them now is to get rid of your email address and start using a new one.First rule of spam: Spammers lie. When you see a link that says “click here to unsubscribe” in a spam email, it’s a lie.You know what that link does? It alerts the spammers, “We got a live one here!” It tells the spammers that you don’t spam-filter your email, that you open and read spam, and that you click on links in spam emails. That makes your address valuable, and the spammers sell your email address at a premium to other spammers.Clicking the unsubscribe link opens the floodgates for spam. Spammers lie. When you read a spam email, assume every single thing in a spam email, everything from the From: address up top to the promise that you’ll be unsubscribed if you hit the unsubscribe link at the end, is a lie. First rule of spam: Spammers lie.You might, depending on who your email service provider is, be able to subscribe to a spam filtering service. But honestly? Either just delete the Russian bride spam, or change your address.
First and foremost, what you are receiving is not spam. By joining Meetup and groups under its aegis you have implicitly consented to receive their communications.Under your general profile you can eliminate notices about new groups, weekly calendars about all your groups, etc. However, to truly pare down your e-mail volume you must unsubscribe to e-mails on a group-by-group basis.Go to your profile for each group you belong to and go to “E-Mail and Notifications”. Then uncheck everything you no longer wish to receive. If you uncheck everything you have effectively left the group unless you make it a point to check the site regularly for event notices.Meetup fails to inform incoming members about this and thus created this problem.
Best way to resolve this is to pop the letter back in your mailbox with the flag up. Most regular carriers will know they made a mistake and will deliver it properly next business day.If you feel they won’t know why it’s back in the mailbox (right address, wrong name, for instance), put the reason why on a sticky note and attach it to the letter, or paperclip a note to it.Coming from a rural carrier, the worst thing you can do in this situation is write “Wrong Address” or “Wrong Person” on the mail. You’re basically ruining someone else’s mail by doing that.Please check to make sure it doesn’t say “Or Current Resident”, if it’s simply an issue with the name. I get people mailing back “or current resident” letters all the time with notes saying, “No longer here!” You’re basically telling us that your house is vacant.Also, it is not ‘illegal’ to place mail in someone else’s mailbox for the reason of forwarding mail properly, or if you have their permission to check it (say…if they’re away on vacation.) It is, however, a felony if you’re using the box to deliver personal mail, remove contents, etc.
The question that needs to be asked is "Who is sending the emails?" For a big hotel chain, it may be the fact that the property does their own email marketing, then the owners of that property might do their own advertising, and then the headquarters of the brand might do their own. So for example, if it was a Hampton Inn, when you opt in, you could have opted in for that Property, The Owner's Company, and for Hilton. The key is reading the privacy policy on sign up (yes I know it's boring and I admit, I rarely do it myself) but that will give you an idea of what is being done with your information.I would call customer service of the hotel chain and let them know you have been trying to remove yourself from all communications. They will most likely be able to remove you from their list and give you the information of whom else you need to contact. If that doesn't work you can start asking to be escalated and reference the Can-Spam Act of 2003 and a Lawyer.
Nope. You do not legally need a mailbox. Any mail that you would receive after you remove your mailbox would be marked “NMR”. That stands for “No Mail Receptacle”. It would automatically be returned back to the sender. If you do this, put a sign up indicating that you no longer have a mailbox for USPS to deliver. We will handle the rest.A word of caution: IF you ever receive anything important via mail and you do not have a mailbox, it will be sent back. Do not try to go to the post office and try to get somebody to intercept that one piece. It will not happen and it will be a waste of time for everybody involved. Do not blame us for returning something that was important. If you truly do not have a use for your mailbox, feel free to remove it at your own discretion.I mention the above because I am a current letter carrier and a backup supervisor. Customers have done this in the past and I had to tell those customers (both as a letter carrier and a supervisor) that we are not responsible for any mail that was returned due to an endorsement of “NMR”.
