SPAM mail or unwanted email, can be an authentic plague and could spread very easily if we are not careful. With very little exceptions, we all receive junk emails, some of which we sometimes can not get rid off.

Why do we receive junk mail?

One of the main reasons we receive a lot of junk email is because we register too much in a lot of services, while at the same time providing those websites with our email addresses. One solution to defend ourselves from spammers and the sorts is by using a personalized alias, where we can create a different one for each website we register. This way, if we start to receive junk email from a specific alias we have created, we can just delete that alias and bye, bye spam forever. Also, you can use this to report to the website you have registered how you got spammed when they claim that they will not sell or share your email address to anyone else. Pretty good deterrent, if you ask me.

How to reduce Spam and Phishing Attacks?

With Silverfeed, you never give out your personal email address! Instead, you create aliases (virtual email addresses), such as website@yourname.silverfeed.com. Incoming email gets screened by Silverfeed with countermeasures that you control. Good emails from legitimate senders are forwarded to your regular email address (any email address). Spam and phishing attacks are drastically reduced, if not eliminated. To make your life even easier, SilverFeed created a browser plug-in for Firefox and Internet Explorer, giving you instant access to Silverfeed's features directly from your web browser. You don't even need to remember your aliases or visit Silverfeed to create new ones. Just click and go.

How Silverfeed works?

Create an alias. Then set your own rules to block or accept emails.

Silverfeed verifies the email and will forward good emails to your private address.

If you reply, Silverfeed will send your email using your alias. Privacy protected.

Untrusted sites get blocked. Sue the company and get rich, lol...

Some final notes:
Silverfeed is a young company and deserves all the compliments by providing a great service such as this one. This is not a paid post. I have tried this service and it works. If you know of any other service that is as good, please share them here with us. BTW, did I mention that all you need to do is to register for your free account (limited to 200 aliases) at Silverfeed.com.
