Do I have to worry about spam?
by Mohan Kapoor, Supervisor, Himalayan Websites
At Helloyou.ws we take spam seriously.
If any misuse of our services is reported, we may suspend or terminate
accounts without warning. Please be careful not to indulge in any of the
following activities:
-
Transmission of nuisance mail, including unrequested, commercial
advertisement or general non-personal announcements.
-
Use of an outside distribution station (relay), in particular an
outside mail server, for the dissemination of electronic mail messages
without the prior explicit authorisation by the owner.
-
Transmission of the same unrequested message to one or to several
electronic distribution lists, known as "spamming".
-
Transmission or the publication of an identical or of a similar message
in several electronic discussion forums (news groups), such as, e.g.,
the excessive cross or multiple publication (also known as "Usenet
spamming", "Excessive Multi-Posting" EMP, "Excessive Cross-Posting"
ECP), irrespective of whether the content is commercial or non-commercial.
-
Falsification of information of the sender or of any other information
in the message header.
We protect our customers from receiving spam as good as possible. For
example our Managed Mail services block
IP's of known spammers and corresponding mail is returned to the sender.
Here is an exmple:
host mail2.zoneedit.com [216.40.250.39]: 554 Service unavailable; [162.42.208.49] blocked using relays.osirusoft.com, reason:
[1] shoaf, see http://spews.org/ask.cgi?S2226
Finally, you can set up filters with your e-mail software to block unwanted
addresses and use bulk mail handling features to trash unsolicited commercial
e-mail.
