SAFER EMAILING

This excellent message ABSOLUTELY applies to ALL of us who send
e-mails.
Read the text below...
Do you really know how to forward e-mails? 50% of us do; 50% do NOT.
Do you wonder why you get viruses or junk mail? Do you hate it? Every
time
you forward an e-mail there is information left over from the people
who got
the message before you, namely their e-mail addresses & names. As the
messages get forwarded along, the list of addresses builds, and
builds, and builds,
and all it takes is for some poor sap to get a virus, and his or her
computer
can send that virus to every e-mail address that has come across his
computer. Or, someone can take all of those addresses and sell them
or send junk
mail to them in the hopes that you will go to the site and he will
make five
cents for each hit. That's right, all of that inconvenience over a
nickel!
How do you stop it? Well, there are two easy steps:
1) When you forward an e-mail, DELETE all of the other addresses that
appear
in the body of the message. That's right, DELETE them. Highlight
them and
delete them, backspace them, cut them, whatever it is you know how to
do.
It only takes a second. You MUST click the Forward" button first, then
you
will have full editing capabilities against the body and headers of
the
message.
If you don't click on "Forward" first, you won't be able to edit the
message
at all.
2) Whenever you send an e-mail to more than one person, do NOT use the
To: or
Cc: columns for adding e-mail address.
Always use the BCC: (blind carbon copy) column for listing the e-mail
addresses. This is the way that people you send to only see their own
e-mail
address. If you don't see your BCC: option click on where it says To:
and your
address list will appear. Highlight the address and choose BCC: and
that's it,
it's that easy. When you send to BCC: your message will automatically
say
Undisclosed Recipients" in the "TO:" field of the people who receive
it.
So please, in the future, let's stop the junk mail and the viruses!
Finally, here's an idea!!! Let's send this to everyone we know. ( but
strip
my address off first). This is something that SHOULD be forwarded.
Hope you find the above info useful and helpful
