Spam is unsolicited email from legitimate sources, like junk mail and catalogs you may receive in the actual mail. Spam intends to get a message out (like a sale or a new product release) but is not meant to trick you and is low-risk to you and the college.
Because of the lower risk, OIT will end monitoring the ‘spam@’ address by the end of the month. Instead of sending your spam there, please use the “Report spam” function in Gmail, which automatically moves the message to your spam folder, and lets Google know it’s unwanted. You can also use the Unsubscribe link (required in legitimate spam) to stop future occurrences, and/or Block the sender.
If an email contains threats of violence or targeted offensive content please call x4444 to report these to Campus Safety.
