It is difficult for most of us to remember a life without email – especially
with regard to the workplace, where reading, writing and responding to
emails now takes up large proportions of many people’s daily lives. As the technologies keep developing, so is the email services. One of the major problems we are dealing with emails is spam mails. Even though the email service providers are picking up spam mails separately, it doesn't come up to the marks. Although the spammers has improved even further. By applying some logic, identifying fake emails is now easier than you imagine. So let's have a look at what we can do.
