What is the best way to keep spam x rated email out of your mailbox?
You can not completely stop all spam, but you can help to put a big dent in it.


First, try not to open any of them, that only makes them send more and more to you.


Check mark them and click on 'Spam,' this should stop those addresses from being delivered to your inbox.


Use your spam filter and block address.


Look for the 'Options' link at upper right corner of mail screen and click on it





Options/ mail options / spam preferences


make sure spam guard is on, click on save changes





Options /mail options / blocked addresses


Enter the E-mail address you wish blocked and click on 'add block'


you will never get mail from that address again.


This should help you to control your spam.


Other tips:


Never open E-mail unless you are absolutely sure who it is from.


Never give out your personal information to anyone.


If at a website and you must sign up for something, check the entire page to make sure you uncheck any lines wanting to send you notices, info, or ads.


Added detail:


Yes, spammers change one item in their addresses a lot, so you might try blocking the entire domain, by putting in


*@ thedomainyouwanttoblock.com


for instance: *@seeyou.com


Hope this helps.
Reply:I'll spare the lengthy explanation on how a SPAMMER works at his / her SPAM craft and advise you check ALL spam email and click the SPAM button each time you see such in your e-address mailbox.





Eventually, the SPAMMER gives up and moves on.





Also equally important, delete those silly chain e-mails that either strangers OR trusted friends send you; some chain e-letters carry "bugs" that report back to their originating SPAMMER, who collects the addresses for potential victims.





Trust me: You won't befall evil bad luck if you don't send the chain email to 10 friends you know. That 'special blessing' you MAY receive if you DO send that chain letter to 10 friends might be that ugly SPAM.
