★★ BLOCKING SPAM AT YAHOO! ★★



◙ Below is an email message from Yahoo's Mail Abuse Team showing the correct ways to block spam in Yahoo Mail.



◙ We understand your concerns about receiving unsolicited email, and can certainly empathize with your frustration. Yahoo! Mail offers several tools to help you keep spam out of your Inbox. To find the following tools (except "This Is Spam") click on OPTIONS in your mail account.





◙ 1. "This is Spam" link -- The most effective way to prevent spam from entering your Inbox is to use the "This is Spam" link next to the "From" address in every message you consider spam. By sending examples of spam to Yahoo! for review, it will increase the effectiveness of Spamguard, Yahoo! Mail's filtering system. Yahoo! will use the messages you send to constantly improve the Spamguard technology and help ensure that unwanted messages are delivered to your Bulk Mail Folder rather than your Inbox.



◙ 2. Filters -- Yahoo! Mail offers you the ability to create filters for your account. You can create filters to deliver emails to a special folder, or to the Trash folder that:



* contain specific words or phrases

* are from a sender's domain

* contain other characteristics you find in spam

◙ 3. Block an address -- Use this feature to block email addresses you do not want to receive email from. When an address is blocked, incoming email from these addresses will be automatically disposed of, without bouncing back to the sender. When you remove an address from your Blocked Addresses list, you will once again be able to receive mail

from that address. For directions on how to block an email address, please visit:

◙ 4. Report the spam -- If you receive harassing or unwanted mail from what appears to be a "@yahoo.com" address, you can forward the message directly to us for review at:



[e-mail]



◙ Please include an unedited copy of the original message along with the full Internet headers. To learn how to display full headers in Yahoo! Mail, please visit:



☞ http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/config/config-11.html



◙ If you receive unwanted mail from a non-"@yahoo.com" address, you may try contacting the sender's email provider by identifying the sender's domain and contacting the administrator of that domain. Unfortunately, Yahoo! has no control over activities outside its service, and therefore we cannot take action in these situations. The sender's provider should be in a better position to take appropriate action against the sender's account.
