Is this enough to get me removed from a mailing list?

Question

By writing on the marketing mails return to sender remove me from mailing list.

Answer 1

yes it is! i used to work for a company that sent out catalogues and mail and we used to get loads back askin us to remove them from mailing lists etc, we always did! i think you can get the company fined if they keep sending you junk mail after youve asked them not too, not sure how you go about doing that though!

Answer 2

By law, all advertising emails should provide details for you to unsubscribe. Either as a link or email address. Usually it is found at the bottom of an advertising email in small print usually.



Sometimes replying to advertising emails does not work due to sender blocking replies from original mail sent. One thing I would like to warn you about is not to reply with unsubscribe request on spam email. Spammers tend to send email out to any address in the hope that someone owns that email. If you reply - they've got you hooked.



Hope this helps,

Hi,



You can go the website and scroll down to the bottom and there usually is a place where you can "contact the webmaster". Then shoot them an email asking to be removed. They may have to manually go into their database and remove your name.



If you get tired of seeing their email in your box and you have outlook express, you can go up to "message" then click on "block sender" then a message will come up asking if you want to permanently remove this person from your email. Click on yes, then you will never see that email again. It will automatically go to your trash bin. I have had to do this on several occasions. It's peace of mind.

if it is a legitimate list, ie one on which your name appears with your permission (which you may not have realised you were giving at some stage), then there will be details for unsubscription at the bottom of the mail.



If its a list which hass gathered your address without your consent, then they might not take you off it no matter what you do, although you can always report the senders to your isp......

Answer 5

should be enough. The onus is then on the company to remove you from the mailing list
