    Also, those “unsubscribe” links can be used to confirm that your email is valid, leading to even more junk, or even phishing attempts. Have to log in to unsubscribe? Better make sure the site is legit first.

      yep, i said that elsewhere. The only way to really deal with spam is a robust filter.

      and even you still have to deal with it, cause eventually something legitimate will slip into the spam folder and then you’re having to dive through the mess to find it.
