Like many people, every time I open my e-mail inbox, I inevitably find some form of spammy forwarded e-mail that promises my immediate death and dismemberment if I fail to pass said spam e-mail on to 15 other people in the next three seconds. And, like many people, I promptly delete these e-mails without a second thought as to stopping their flow from the source. StopForwarding.Us is a free service to help stop the flow of spam forwarded e-mails from people we know. And rather than a profanity-laced rant, it does so politely and clearly. In the e-mail that is sent to the spammy offender, StopForwarding.us explains why forwarding spam e-mail is undesirable and offers more favorable solutions for the user to pass along entertaining e-mails.  This site was created to meet the need of those who are bothered by poor email etiquette, specifically when it comes to forwarded chain letters, urban myths, and bad jokes. The primary function of the site is to allow individuals to anonymously email someone who has sent them spam or forwards (also known as FWDs) a generic letter that politely asks the recipient to refrain from sending this type of email.
