Spamming vs. Flaming



Spamming vs. Flaming

What is Spamming? Differentiate it from flaming.

Spamming is the Internet version of junk mail. Unsolicited commercial mail has been an inexpensive way for companies to promote their goods and services but results in clogging of email inboxes for most people. Flaming on the other hand, is the act of sending abusive or disrespectful messages to other people in the Internet through email, newsgroups, mailing lists, etc.
