message or newsgroup posting sent to many recipients or newsgroup at once. Spam is Internet junk mail. The content of spam ranges from selling a product or service, to promoting a business
opportunity, to advertising
offensive material. Once study indicates more than 80 percent of e-mail is spam. Instead of via e-mail, some spam is sent through an instant messaging
system and, thus, is called spim. Another type, called spit, is spam sent via VoIP.
