| Summary: | This paper attempts to discuss the spam issue from
the Malaysian e-mail users’ perspective. The purpose is to discover
how Malaysian users handle the spam e-mail problem. From the
experiences we hope to discover the necessary effort needed to be
undertaken to face this problem in the context of Malaysia. A
survey was conducted to understand how Malaysian individual
perceived spam and what they actually do with the spam e-mail
they received in their daily life. The findings indicate that the level
of awareness on spam issue in action is still low and need some
extra effort by government and relevant agencies to increase their
level of awareness. |
