correo basura: En español, se usa este término amplio para denominar los mensajes recibidos mediante la tecnología de Internet que no fueron solicitados y que no son del interés del destinatario. En general, los mensajes no están personalizados, provienen de remitentes desconocidos y en tal cantidad que es necesario programar filtros para evitar su llegada, especialmente cuando se reciben por correo electrónico. 4, record 1, Spanish, - correo%20electr%C3%B3nico%20basura
