These costs run, even conservatively estimated, into billions every year What is a Spam Folder?Ī "Spam folder" is the one that is going to store all your spam emails, which has been detected by the spam filters after the emails have arrived in your Inbox. The real costs of spam emails are in the time spent by users to sort through the unwanted junk emails (in spam folders), the size of the email system that Internet Service Providers (ISPs) must provide to store and forward the emails, and in the delays to the genuine messages caused by the overloading of systems by spam emails. Since sending and receiving email is very cheap, marketers and other people who send bulk messages to masses see spam as an ecologically friendly way to send messages in comparison to the paper-based “junk mail.” However, the cost of spam should not be calculated in the fractions of a penny that it takes to transmit the messages in bytes. Unfortunately, as every user is well aware, a proportion of that email traffic is unsolicited and unwanted advertising- popularly known as spam. Billions of emails are transferred every day on the internet.
Email remains as the most prominent Internet-based service for users.
