What I find truly offensive are those religious emails that say pass this on if you are not ashamed of Jesus. I am not ashamed, but I don’t need to spam my friends with chain letters to prove it!

I’ve started to filter all “FW:” mails to be archived & labeled “Junk” in my gmail. I didin’t want to “mark it as spam” as then all the e-mails I receive from those people will go to my spam folder.
Suppose its an “okay” solution, for now in anycase

Oh I like what Will said must remember that for next time…..I have had to tell a few friends don’t bother sending me this crap and it seems to have worked for most of them

There are several choices in how to respond to these things.

1) Send an e-mail back to that person with no body and a subject title of “unsubscribe”

2) Create a sort of chain mail response, but one that deals with things antithetical to what you’re receiving. Maybe for every Angel e-mail you get, send back a Satan e-mail… or a death e-mail. Or something. They’ll get the idea.

3) Respond asking them if they’re sending something to the wrong person, or asking if their account got hijacked because you keep getting “Weird, stupid e-mails” from their account.

4) Delete the e-mails, or filter them into your junk mail. If you really care about them the filtering might be a problem if you get real e-mails sometimes from them.

Oh yes, that’s exactly how I feel. I went so far as to tell my friends and family that if they forwarded this junk, or any junk for that matter, to me any more I was going to print it all out and make them eat it. I think they got the point, most of them anyway. The ones who didn’t went on my spam list. I hate electronic chain mail.

I have a brother-in-law, who sends me that crap each week. I finally, after much consideration of my own sanity, decided to send it back to him, as an “attachment.”

I wrote in the subject line: As to your latest missive:

When he opened it, he read: Kiss my ass!

(I have to admit, that felt goooooOOOOd!)
