I must have gotten more than 50 e-mails over the weekend and only one of them was actually to me. The rest were just spam.
I think it's time to change my e-mail address.

You can't stop them and changing your e-mail is almost as bad as moving. If you reply to get off the list that just confirms you are still using that e-mail and you get more.
Yahoo allows you to block some and you can report SPAM. They also mine e-mails off of messanger programs

We have something that blocks unwanted e-mails. I will ask hubby about it I'm sure you being the computer wizard you will know what he is talking about.

my hotmail account was letting spam through even with the junkmail filter on. i started unsubscribing and blocking whole domain addresses and it has cleaned up rather nicely.
