My ignorance is showing here.  What is spam? And how does it work?

Quote:
Spam - Spam refers to electronic junk mail or junk newsgroup postings. Some people define spam even more generally as any unsolicited e-mail. In addition to being a nuisance, spam also eats up a lot of network bandwidth. Because the Internet is a public network, little can be done to prevent spam, just as it is impossible to prevent junk mail. However, the use of software filters in e-mail programs can be used to remove most spam sent through e-mail.

Does this have anything to do with the pm I assume we all got about being on that show? Sounds like it is a wanna-be Springer or something. I do really like the guy though. He is funny, but I have no desire to take my dirty laundry on air! I just wondered if that is what you meant by spam or if I should look out for something else!
Yes, it is in response to that. We just want to be sure you's guys be careful with these people who claim to be something they might not be.
