Hello Alice and all,
I use Mailwasher http://www.mailwasher.net/ which is a free little
program that reads my email off my isp (internet service provider) _before_
I download it. I can scan the subject lines and even preview the content
(not html). This is where it gets great. I can then bounce the email back
to the sender without opening it. It then looks to the spammer like it was
undeliverable and they take my name off their lists. I have had this email
address for almost a decade and get very little spam as I bounce it back.
I also only use this email address for personal mail. When I enter
contests or respond in any way to something online I use my hotmail or
gmail accounts. One of my hotmail accounts is almost a decade old too and
only recently has the spam level increased. Usually their filters catch it.
http://www.spamcop.net/ Spamcop is a reporting site. I believe it only
takes registering with them and if we all reported it soon spam levels
would drop.
Hope this helps someone.
