spam
अनचाही /अप्रार्थित /अयाचित ई-मेल


Explanation:
"SPAM" mail is the practice of sending massive amounts of E-mail promotions or advertisements (and scams) to people that have not asked for it. Many times, SPAM E-mail lists are created by "harvesting" E-mail addresses from discussion boards and groups, chat rooms, IRC, and web pages. SPAM has an extremely negative connotation and most users find it annoying and a waste of resources.
