1 December 1983: Electronic mail tends to be informal in style encouraging people to send brazen messages but even if you are abroad, work can follow you wherever you are
We hate delivering them just as much as you hate getting them. Your best bet is to call the companies sending them and have them remove your address from their mailing list.
You could also go to the full extreme of just removing your mailbox and getting nothing, but sadly that also includes any packages sent through the USPS. They’ll get returned as No Mail Receptacle.
I wouldn’t say I stop the junk, but I use informed delivery so I can see what’s coming every day.
If it’s the usual daily onslaught of junk mail, I generally will only go to my mailbox once or twice a week to empty it out.
I only go out there more frequently if something comes with personal information beyond name and address or the very rare actual piece of mail which recently included the unfortunate call to jury duty.
Nope, it’s a revenue generator for the USPS so they just slide in adverts that aren’t addressed to your address or any particular person. Zero recourse other than not receiving any mail at all.
This is on top of all the shit that is addressed to you that you can slowly try to fight and unsubscribe from. Catalogs and ‘current resident’ shit.
Don’t forget the adverts that you can’t stop them from delivering…shit drives me crazy

Can you not where you are? In Canada, you can just tell Canada Post to not deliver them and they’ll stop within a couple weeks
