A new stamp I designed, helping to identify unwanted mail (4-4)
I believe the answer is:
anti-spam
'designed helping to identify unwanted mail' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether it can be defined by this definition.
'a new stamp i' is the wordplay.
'a' becomes 'an'.
'new' indicates an anagram.
'stamp'+'i'='stampi'
'stampi' with letters rearranged gives 'tispam'.
'an'+'tispam'='ANTI-SPAM'
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
