Newsletter vs Spam

spam

'der Newsletter' and 'der Spam' are both electronic messages, often sent by email. The difference mainly lies in whether the message is wanted. You normally receive a 'Newsletter' because you subscribed to it and want information about a topic. 'Spam' is something you receive unwanted and often in large quantities, usually as advertising. The words can be confused because both end up in your inbox. The key point is: wanted regular information is a newsletter; unwanted mass advertising is spam.

Visual example for Spam
Newsletter

Ab nächster Woche bekommen wir den Newsletter mit den Angeboten des Sportvereins.

Starting next week, we will receive the newsletter with the sports club's offers.
