I was talking with my wife the other day and the topic was on forwarded messages from family and friends. You normally just want to delete these annoying forwards and yet you don’t want to hurt the feelings of your loved ones. After speaking to her I reviewed a link to a digg post that referred to a service offered by 43 folders.

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

Beautiful! Paste that into a reply to any of these forward messages and educate your friends and family on proper email etiquette without fear of hurting their feelings. Well.. at least less fear of doing so.
