New anti-spam measure compels consumers to hit 'reply' to e-mails
The new legislation Congress approved to stem the flood of unwanted e-mails will require a fundamental change in ways that Internet users respond to overflowing inboxes.
As the deluge of unsolicited pitches offering prescription drugs and cheap loans worsened during the Internet's growth, experts have cautioned computer users against doing what comes naturally: Reply to unwanted e-mails to demand an end to them.
The reason? Unscrupulous spammers deem each such demand a verification that someone actually received their e-mails -- and promptly sent dozens more to the same address.
