SPAM SPAM and more SPAM!

USFamily.Net implemented automatic SPAM (unsolicited bulk commercial email)  filtering a number of months ago as we noticed a continued upturn in the amount of SPAM entering our domain.  Today we process between 1 and 2 million emails a month and almost 10% of that email is eliminated, as SPAM from known SPAM sites, before it reaches your mailbox.  You can always view all the SPAM screened from you in our SPAM viewer. SPAM originates from many International locations and from poorly administrated and unsuspecting business servers (known as open relays) which are easily hacked by SPAMmers. If legitimate email comes from these servers the sender receives a return email telling them what to do to get their email through our SPAM filtering to you.  We find many people fail to read and follow the simple instructions but we are happy to help them, or you, in that rare instance.   Most businesses eventually appreciate finding out their servers have been hijacked for use by SPAMmers.  Remember, if an important email fails to get to you because the sending site has been screened for SPAMing it is easy for the sender to resolve the problem or you can view that email in our SPAM viewer. http://www.usfamily.net/tip-2001-02-03.html
We do not catch all SPAM so to report SPAM you may go to http://www.usfamily.net/faq.html#SPAM Please never purchase a bulk email list even that claims "100% opt in".   You may not use USFamily.Net or any other reputable Internet service for unsolicited bulk email.
