Keep Your Email Inbox Spam Free With Cleanzer Firefox Addon
Did you know that almost 90% of all email sent every day is Spam? I knew Spam emails were generated and sent on a large scale everyday, but this statistic really is overwhelming. When so may spam emails are flying about, the question is how long would it take for one of your email addresses to fall prey to the spam bots?
Online webmail services like GMail, Hotmail and Yahoo Mail are doing a fantastic job as far as Spam filtering is concerned, but that doesn’t mean your email address itself would not be used to send spam. You are not a spammer but, the spam bots may use your email as a front for sending Spam email to others.
One of the best ways to protect your personal email address from being a target for spam is to never reveal it on any website. Cleanzer is a online service which provides a Firefox Addon for a Spam free experience on the internet.
Cleanzer Firefox Addon Details:
Cleanzer Firefox Addon is an extension developed by Cleanzer, which is an online service for generating temporary email addresses. It provides you with a new email address when you need to use an email on a website and then lets you access, review and manage the emails you get.
The advantage of using temporary email address is that you get the email you wanted, but you do not need to reveal your personal email address to any website. This would be especially useful if you are on a new website that you don’t really trust yet and you either need to comment on or subscribe to the website.
Cleanzer Addon Installation:
When you first install the Cleanzer addon, you would see the Cleanzer toolbar at the top of your browser window.
Spam Ratings: The toolbar has a Spam Rating System, which tells you if a website is safe for using your email. Since this is very new, a very few websites have been added to the ratings as spam free.
Get Cleanzer Address: Click on the ‘Get Cleanzer Address’ button and your unique Cleanzer email address appears in a pop-up box and you can then cut and paste this address into a registration or comment form.
Check Emails: Allows you to review any emails that have been sent to you, from the websites you subscribed using the cleanser email address.
Tools Button: This button helps you to configure your Cleanzer account details and preferences.
Sign in: This button lets you sign in to your Cleanzer account.
Cleanzer Firefox Addon Usage:
When you install Cleanzer, you would need to sign up with the service, to get temporary email addresses which are unique to your account. Click on Sign in button. If you are new to the services, then click on “Get Started” button to get an account.
Once you have signed up, you can click on “Get Cleanzer address” on the toolbar and a new unique email address would be generated for a website. Its like using a url shortening service for any webpage.
Once you sign up, you can use the “Check Email” button to see if any new mails have arrived right from the browser toolbar.
If you observe, no where during this process was your personal email address mentioned anywhere. This assures that your “real” email address would never be exposed to spam bots, thus keeping you away from spam.
Rating Your Emails in the Cleanzer Inbox:
You can easily classify your emails in Cleanzer Inbox as useful and spam. You can also forward relevant emails to your personal address.
Once you are sure a website is free of spam, just go ahead and subscribe to the site with your original email with the peace of mind that your email address is now safe.
