By now, spam is no stranger to your inbox. Many people are receiving
hundreds of messages every day and the numbers are growing. Spam
is a common term used to describe unsolicited e-mail. Companies and
individuals send spam for one reason...Money. It is very inexpensive to
send spam messages to millions of people. Now, I know what you are
thinking, "Doesn't everyone just delete it?" The answer is that over 99%
of people do delete these messages. That leaves less than 1% that
actually responds to them. This is considered to be a success and turns
a quick profit for the spammer.

So, now we know what spam is and why people send it. Now I'll describe
how they are sent. Spammers harvest lists of e-mail addresses primarily
from websites, newsgroups, and mailing lists. Then the messages are sent
out using accounts that do not exist, or ones that are unable to accept
replies. CTI's Spam Protector has been developed with these fundamentals
in mind. What you will see next is a step-by-step demonstration of the CTI
Spam Protector process.
