How will Verizon Yahoo! help shield my inbox from spam?
Verizon Yahoo! Mail offers powerful protection through SpamGuard Plus, which redirects junk mail into a customer’s bulk mail folder. Additionally, Verizon Yahoo! members can further improve the effectiveness of the spam filtering capability by tagging those messages that are considered spam. Over time, the Verizon Yahoo! spam filters learn what you personally consider to be spam and will become that much more effective in keeping junk mail out of your inbox. In addition, Verizon Yahoo! offers AddressGuard, a spam feature that allows you to create hundreds of disposable e-mail addresses. This comes in handy particularly when you need to provide your e-mail address to people and companies you have no history with. Instead of giving out your permanent e-mail address, you can give out a disposable e-mail address. That way, if the disposable e-mail address is abused in anyway, you can simply eliminate it to stop the spam from reaching your inbox.
