SPAM PROTECTION WITH GMAIL ID

When you register to some websites,they ask you mail id for registration.These website services often promise not to sell your email id and maintain privacy.If you feel insecure of this then you have to use a + sign to your Gmail id while registering.

if you are going to register at some site called as Sample.com and feel insecure to provide your mail id then you can use Yourname+something@gmail.com When Gmail sees a “+” in an email address, it uses all the characters to the left of the plus sign ,ie. Yourname@gmail.com

Go to Settings, set up a filter. In the From box, add Sample site.In the To box, put in your newly-created Yourname+something@gmail.com address, and set the filter to put in a folder named as “Something”.Now all their spammy mails will go directly to the trash.

Safe SurfinG!!! (:
