By Mortin Mejo
Cell phones produce electromagnetic radiation. Cell phones discharge certain signals known as radio frequency energy, a form of electromagnetic radiation. There is lot of news these days as to whether cell phones emit radiation which affects our health. Cell phones are placed close to our head which results in direct radiation to the head. Ionizing and Non-Ionizing radiation are the two types of electro magnetic radiation. Radiation can damage human tissue if exposed to high levels of radio frequency radiation. Some of the health problems that can arise due to radiation are Cancer, Brain tumors, Alzheimer, Fatigue and Headache. According to a survey, higher levels of radiation can heat biological tissue and cause damage such as burns.
In U.S. every model is tested and meets FCC standards before it is sold in the market. SAR (specific absorption rate) is a way of measuring the quantity of radio frequency energy that is absorbed by the body. A or cordless phone should have less than 1.6 watts per kilogram SAR level.
Some of the highest radiation cell phones in United States are as follows: Motorola V195s has 1.6 SAR level. Motorola ZN5, VU204, W385, i335 have 1.59, 1.55, 1.54 and 1.53 SAR levels. Some of the lowest radiation cell phones in United States are as follows: Samsung Eternity SGH-A867, SGH-G800, Soul, Innov8, SHG-T229, and SGH-i450 have 0.194, 0.23, 0.24, 0.287, 0.383 and 0.457 have SAR levels.
Some of the radiation protection tips are as follows: When you are speaking over the phone, try to keep the phones as far as possible from the ear. For long conversation use landline corded phones. Do not use cell phones in areas where the signal is week. As far as possible, text messages instead of making a call. Buy a that has lower SAR. Do not allow children to use a except for emergencies. Children are more sensitive to radiation because their bodies are developing. Dont keep the near your body at night. Do not put the in your pocket while in use. Nowadays various protection devices are available in the market which can protect you from radiation.
Many people are facing health problems due to cell phones. Many people are prone
My mail provider (fastmail.fm) allows each user to create unlimited addresses. For example, when I register with Amazon I use "amazon@myaccountname.com", this site might get "lifehacker@myaccountname.com", etc. If I ever were to start getting spam to that address, I can easily shut that particular address off. (Plus I get the satisfaction of knowing who sold my address.
I end up with about 1 or 2 spam messages per week that get through the filters, and very few false positives. From my phone I can retrieve messages with IMAP or POP.

I use Gmail as a Spam Filtering service also.
For example:
PUBLIC@EMAIL is my spam pron public email address. I forward emails that come to that address to my private Gmail account and then use a Gmail filter to forward all the emails it receives (minus the spam)to PRIVATE@EMAIL, my private IMAP address. This is what my treo connects to. The "reply-to" field in my IMAP settings is always set to PUBLIC@EMAIL so no one ever sees the PRIVATE@EMAIL email address.
It's working great, and best of all it's free. shalosophy ]]>
I wrote my own anti-spam solution for my Blackberry. Using my "sent mail" mbox file on my server I generate a list of any email address I that I have ever sent to or mentioned in an email. To make sure I am always updating this list the Blackberry sends a "BCC" to my server where the list is kept.
When a new message comes in it first hits my server, it checks this master list, then saves a copy to the HD and forwards another to my Blackberry account. This means I can avoid using the "pop3" access which is only updated every 15 minutes. Using the BB address I get the message almost instantly.
I've been using this system for a little over a month now, it has room for improvement but it's easy to use. New contacts? Just send them a note first, or troll your spam folder. ryanweal ]]>

My solution is to forward all email to my free Gmail account and then use the POP functionality to access my email on my Treo. There are limitations to this (must be able to forward email and Gmail's POP is a bit dodgy), but it is free and Gmail catches 99.5 percent of spam for me.

I have a gmail account. I have never given out the email address to anyone (apart from a couple of people who I sent gmail invites to). Everyone uses an email address at a domain name I own, which forwards to my real email address and gmail claims all email was sent from an address at my domain name. My website only has a contact form, not an email address, so as to hide my address.
Yet still I get 5 or 6 spam emails a day sent directly to my gmail account (which gmail always correctly identifies as spam). I find this very annoying as the only step I can think of to make my email any more spam free is to not have an email address at all. davosmith ]]>
I have been using SpamBully, a desktop spam filter to do this for a while now. It has an option to just forward any good email that pass through its filter to another email address (cellphone email address). Only thing is you need to leave your mail client open and computer on. Not a problem for me, but may be for some. delay ]]>
I also use Gmail to filter my spam. I receive a really big mountain of spam everyday. Gmail stops about 500 spams/day and pass 200 e-mails. From this 200 that pass, about 100 are spams.
All my work accounts are forwarded to my Gmail account. There, after spamfilter, it redirects everything to a special IMAP account.
I like the IMAP server a lot. Use it to have my work computer, notebook and Treo all sincronised. fperuzzo ]]>
Please don't recommend Challenge/Response spam filtering!
Spammers don't use real "from" addresses. In fact, they usually use someone else's address, rather than just making one up. (It makes it more likely for their spam to get through.)
So if a spammer sends out a ton of e-mail from an address or domain that I own, all those automatic responses from people using C/R filtering will come to *my* inbox, even though I had nothing to do with the spam!
I get tons of spam anyway, and these "Are you a human?" messages are really annoying.
Instead why not just use Gmail, or someone like Fastmail.fm, who do "normal" spam filtering on the server, instead?
If you use Challenge/Response filtering, you are causing a bigger problem than you are solving. Lion ]]>
Spam was getting to be a problem on my mobile device... but then, it was getting to be a problem everywhere. But if you're like me, you have to use the company's e-mail, so big brother can watch what's happening. And big brother's spam filters are weak, weak, weak.
To aggressively tackle the spam problem, I set up a new Gmail account, then forwarded my work address to it. I use Thunderbird to access the Gmail account, then apply a filter to bring the contents of the Gmail inbox back to my work IMAP account. I keep Thunderbird running at home to do the filtering for me, so the flow of e-mail is pretty steady; I doubt if anyone even notices that Gmail has first crack at everything. And since my mobile connects with my office server, the spam problems are all but solved. RossWhite ]]>
Hm, guess my comment didn't appear.
@DramaQueen- if you login to sprint.com, there's a section that says Text messages ~ preferences under my content manager. Something like that. You can block select senders of messages, or allow only those in your preferred list of friends. Good feature. katana ]]>
DramaQueen-- if you login to sprint.com, click my content manager, then text messaging and preferances-- there's a way you can block certain texts.
You can even block all but a specified list. It might very on how to get to that screen since you have nextel, but they have pretty good options. katana ]]>
You have some really good ideas here, but my question is...
How do you stop the spam TEXT messages??? I actually had to have Nextel turn off my internet on the phone because it was getting so bad...and I protect my cell number like it's my last bit of oxygen! LOL! Obviously, either one spammer got it and sold my number or it was a random dial thing.
Now, it wasn't a huge deal to turn off the internet because I don't "generally" text or email from my phone, but I would like to occasionally download a ringtone, which can't be done with the service turned off.
Any ideas for this...anyone? Drama Queen ]]>
Oh, I see your story does say "personal e-mail." Heh, you were ahead of me. ;)
Too bad a lot of my personal e-mail still comes to my work income-- actually, my work e-mail is forwarding to my personal e-mail (quota issues), but I still receive some e-mail from friends in my work address. katana ]]>
I like the idea. However, SpamArrest for work e-mail doesn't seem like a good idea IMO. Like others, I hate-- and often refuse to-- respond to people's "are you human" authentication methods. For personal e-mail, sounds good. katana ]]>
to high blood pressure due to cell phones. A study has found out that if people use cell phones for long hours they can face problems like burning skin, headaches and fatigue, sleeping disorders and brain tumors. You can also face short term memory loss problems. Some researches claim that holding a on the ear for long hours can damage muscles, bones, tendons and discs.
