Quick Tips for Dealing with Spam

  • Do not respond directly to the spam message since the sender name is almost always forged.
  • Do send a complaint to the postmaster at the sending site and each site that relayed the mail.
  • Do copy your complaint to: ucdabuse@ucdavis.edu when you send the complaint to the originating or relaying site.
  • Do find out how to set up a filter in the email browser that you use. Filter out known spam addresses.
