Have you considered setting up rules to filter your email or software that will assist you in doing this? I have and it reduces the amount of spam that gets through to a couple per day.

But that only works on a computer with an email client. If you use Hotmail.com or other web based email clients, the filtering is rather limited. I often have to use half a dozen different computers during the day. I wish Hotmail would filter this garbage out. The only filtering they have is blocking email addresses. Most of the email addresses on spam are bogus anyway and never reused. I could tell Hotmail.com to block up to 200 email address, but the identical viagra ad will appear in my inbox from another email address. Considering the volume of email that goes through some email servers one would think ISPs would have better ways of blocking spam based on pattern recognition.

Like an earlier poster stated about their telephone.

It's there for my convenience. Not theirs.

The spam still clogs the internet, and wastes a lot of personal time, missed e-mails, junk mail that gets through automatic filters, etc. Spam is total trash, virtual pollution that should be banned! Why should we tolerate these lying jerk freeloaders wrecking the technology for the rest of us?

Hang 'em high, I say!
