spam e mails

i have started getting spam e mail from an online pharmacy and various other"how to make your penis 10 cm longer" etc etc (not that i need to of course)
is there any way of stopping them,some come through and are not even to the same e mail address,i keep adding to my blocked senders list,but they always come from a different sender,i have set the delete function which sends certain words straight to deleted items but its still annoying
im using outlook express on windows me

Re: spam e mails

I gave up ages ago. On average I get about 3 every morning about Calatis or whatever they call it being far superior to Viagra and going to fancy dress parties as a tripod.

They wouldn't stop sending them even when I told them I could achive the same effect by folding it in half

Re: spam e mails

Try Mailwasher. http://www.firetrust.com/firetrustpro.html
Less hassle than changing to AOL.
No offense, Miket but AOL likes to take over your Internet and going from normal ISP & IE to AOL it like going from no sugar in your tea to 2 lumps. But hey some like 2 lumps.

Sometimes its better to have a separate utility for these sorts of things IMHO :thumb:

Maybe they think you're past all that Mike so they don't bother sending you the spam any more.
