I'd add in that when you forward those long e-mail chain letters it<br>
leaves your e-mail address in the chain, so when you hit that forward<br>
button you're giving out e-mail addresses to everybody you send the<br>
message to, even when they probably don't have a need for it.<br></blockquote></div><br><br>It's also worth pointing out that even if you never ever forward or even open those silly forwarded letters, you can be sure that another recipient will, leaving your address there for the whole world to see.<br>
<br>Sadly, as soon as you provide your email address to anybody, you're a potential recipient of this kind of garbage. Consider having a "public" address and an inner circle address. Those with your inner circle address know how to use it.<br>
