Spam is becoming an increasing nuisance to Internet users. These mass direct mail-shots can cause inconvenience, annoyance and expense to recipients. InterWeb does not condone such practices in any form, nor do we sanction such applications by other websites. As such, all incoming emails are checked for SPAM through third party agencies. We currently use Spam Cop and the Open Relay DataBase (ORDB) to filter spam. These should reduce the amount of unsolicited email you receive. However please keep in mind they are not 100% accurate. For example, Spam Cop blocks the BBC Newsletter as it is delivered by a mail list company who also deliver large quantities of unsolicited email.
