Reducing Junk Mail

The first thing I do when I get to work every day is check my email. Just like sorting through my paper mail, my mailbox is full of useless junk that I trash immediately. It's not that big of a deal but it is a nuisance. I read an article titled: Anti-Spam Tips and Resources: Reducing the Flood of Junk E-Mail. This article explained how spammers get your email address, what the government is trying to do about it, and tips on what people can do to stop the junk mail. Although most of the tips I already do, such as not opening Spam mail or responding to it, but one thing I will try after reading the article is to use a secondary email verses my work email when signing up for things on the web.
