Abstract: A method, system and process through which Email recipients may immediately and visually authenticate the source from which an Email originated without needing to open the Email or explore its content. This will allow a recipient to accurately segregate all desired, legitimate Email from that which is either unwanted, unexpected, illegal, malicious, potentially harmful or criminal in nature. An Email Sender must first require each proposed Email recipient to create and supply them with a unique word or code that the recipient should be prepared to identify later. The Sender must then insert this “Secret Word” within the subject heading of all subsequent Emails dispatched to that same recipient, so the recipient may then visually authenticate the legitimacy of the correspondence. All subsequent Emails purporting to be from that Sender that do not contain the correct “Secret Word” should be unopened and discarded.
