To send and receive messages, you can use an  program, also known as an  client such as Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird or an online service or webmail such as Hotmail, Gmail, and Yahoo Mail. Many of the online services including the above examples are free or have a free account option.

7. SPAM MAIL

9. ADVANTAGES OF SPAM It helps to publicize events e.g. major concerts.
Also Companies use spam in much the same way (although often on a far larger scale). 

10. DISADVANTAGES OF SPAM
Spam is annoying. If you've ever had to go through your account, weeding out the relevant s from the junk messages selling miracle hair growth lotions, free subscriptions to dating websites, and overnight body enlargement then you'll know exactly what I mean!

11. HOW TO GET RID OF SPAM
If you're already getting spam messages, check with your Internet service provider to see whether it has a spam-prevention option that scans your incoming for known spammers.
If you're lucky enough not to be getting spam now, then sign up for a second (free) address from a service such as Yahoo or Hotmail. Use this address exclusively for e-commerce, mailing-list subscriptions and bulletin-board postings of any kind. Reserve your main address for private to and from friends.
Use the filtering feature in your program to create rules that redirect spam messages to your Suspected Spam folder. Most spam is not addressed to its recipient by name.

12. DIFFERENCE
Both and  spam are basically advertisements or messages that people would like to convey with others.
Both are common on the internet and are often received by users with an address.
However, what draws the line between the two? vs. spam, also known as unsolicited commercial is an that gets delivered to users' inboxes on a large scale without these users' permission. They are targeted to anyone regardless of their interests in the contents.

13. CONCLUSION
Spamming is a bad Internet marketing practice because it infringes on personal space and privacy.
however is different. This is the capturing or creation of lists with the users' consent, as they believe that in return you would provide valuable information.
The fine line here is that even if they give you their address you should try to avoid spamming-only sending sales letters and advertisements. Proper marketing is providing the audience with relevant and valuable information along with the products and services you have to offer (relating to each other).
