Back in May, I shared some tips for detoxifying your inbox and supplied an example of what to send to those individuals whom you would like to avoid offending but whose email you would like to avoid receiving. Just thought I would share this site created by Merlin Mann of 43Folders fame.

The site is called Thanks. No. In it he suggests replying to those unwanted emails with the following:

Hi there, beloved friend of this email recipient:

Please visit http://thanksno.com/

Because this person likes getting personal messages from you, but doesn’t want any more email like this, please.

Love,
ThanksNo.com

It may seem a little harsh but I am guessing, very effective- what do you think?
