Excessive spam sent to club president individual email

4 years 10 months ago

I'm the president of a club. Under club email addresses, mine is set up to get emails sent
to that email address, which is president-2567@toastmastersclubs.org. I've tried every which
way to stop spam and each day, click on the "click to block sender" option, which is not blocking
anything. Do I need to resend the club website? Should I just delete my email address? I get 2
to 5 spam messages a day. This started about 5 weeks ago, in September, 2020. Is the club website
out-of-date? Help! Club #2567, Essex Toastmasters Club. 2567.toastmastersclubs.org/

If you posted your presidents email address on the net you will get spam, it is a sad fact of life on the internet.
If you are clicking the link to add the email addresses to the black list that is a step in the right direction.
You can also update the black list so just the @domains are in the list.
You can increased to spam detection from 5
if it is still too much for you, you can put a tick in your club website profile to remove your officer alias.

Thank you for responding. I'm a bit unclear about this. For showing @domains on the black list, are you saying that the name before the @ sign is deleted? For example instead of saying "loans@domain.com", it would just say
"@ domain.com"? For changing the spam detection number from 5, are you saying to increase it to a 7 or lower it to a 1? Also, I don't know what you're referring to when you say "put a tick in your club website profile". I'm not sure how one would accomplish that.
