Tired of Email Forwards: StopForwarding will send your friend a polite mail

18 comments

Tired of receiving email forwards from your friends, whose email address you don’t want to block. You might not also want to write back and tell him/her not to send forwards anymore.

Try StopForwarding. You can simple add your friend’s name and email address at this site and they will send your friend a polite email asking him/her not send anymore spam emails and that spamming is bad. They won’t include your name in the email.

Well, I tried to add one of my colleagues’ email address to the site just for kicks. And you know what? I got an error message saying ‘An email has already been sent to this email address, in last 1 month. We do not promote spam. Use a different email address.’ :-)

    I've had problems with friends forwards being full of bugs…

    My computer will throw me offline.

    One friend though does send cute pics of her kids which I love to see,but the other friend seems to think meaningless

    nonsense forwards are a means of communication.

    Another friend told me she feels one of her friends is

    angry with her and sends forwards to waste her time.

    Forwards with racey pics I especially hate.
