ok...the bad monkey hasn't read the entire thread.
but don;t you have a "report spam" button with your email?
i never open emails from anyone i don;t know. i hit the repost spam button. my isp will block all emails from those carriers if they get enough reports.
i also have "keywords" that i can enter and it blocks all those.
good luck melody. i know spam emails can be a pain and you never know if they have a virus.
