to control spam folder in gmail

S

hi friend
in my gmail ,i get un necessary email messages from various site.
i keep mailing them that "please delete my email adress"
still i get many email messages ,those i dont like.
please help.
suraj

there must be some option to mark them as spam.I have it in my yahoomail.

And never click on those links in mails "Click here to stop getting such mails" or "click here to unregister for getting these mails"

These links always help in increasing SPAM mails

and as Vimal suggested, report those mails as SPAM

Mr VISTA

is right. Never try to unsubscribe from the lists. By doing so, you are confirming that it is a valid email address. More and more spam will come because now the value of that email address is increased

hi vishal
u mean i should not click "unsubscribe".that's ok but 50\60 messages get per day.is spam automatically delet them?

The mails, which u think are unnecessary, are called SPAM mails and these r usually sent by various sites to promote their products and many times such mails contain virus, etc.
So never open them and never click that link, which I told u.

In future always report such mails as SPAM, so that such mails will be automatically moved to SPAM folder and u'll not need to worry about them.

vishal , does it get deleted automatically?

^^Though I am not a gmail user but I can say that they dont get deleted automatically.But they also dont add up to your inbox capacity.
