Noncommercial spam


E-mail spam is by far the most common form of spamming on the internet. It involves sending identical or nearly identical unsolicited messages to a large number of recipients. Unlike legitimate commercial e-mail, spam is generally sent without the explicit permission of the recipients, and frequently contains various tricks to bypass e-mail filters. Modern computers generally come with some ability to send spam. The only necessary added ingredient is the list of addresses to target.

Spamming is commonly defined as the sending of unsolicited bulk e-mail - that is, email that was not asked for (unsolicited) by multiple recipients (bulk). A further common definiton of spam restricts it to unsolicited commercial e-mail, a definiton that does not consider non-commercial solicitations such as political or religious pitches, even if unsolicited, as spam.
