Valpak Blocked, Millions of Junk Mailers to Go...

Oh yeah! Got my first prohibitory order today. This one is against "Valpak," those annoying coupons that come constantly. This order prohibits Valpak from sending me any more junk mail. The good news is that it probably will also stop them from sending it to everyone on my block. Since these mailers use "saturation mailing," it is sometimes easier for them to just remove an entire block from their database instead of removing little old me.

If you want to file a prohibitory order, you need a Postal Form 1500. An explanation of the process and the form is available from EPIC here.

I would like to stop all of my junk mail. I'm getting "spammed" pretty heavily in my physical mailbox, too.
