    If you are using outlook express, set up filters (create rules from this
    message).
    I have rules such as delete from server "any mail with the subject line
    containing" $$$ or !!! or Make More Money or "HI" .
    You an also "block sender" when you get them.
    I use free tracing programs like "sam spade" or "Neo Trace" to track the
    spammer, find his netblock and report him to the sending isp and the
    netblock that hosts his site. This taks about 2 minutes per spam, but you
    get the satifaction of having him kicked off his server.
    Earthlink and Mindspring have good filtering services. I was usng "bright
    mailo" filtering, but I changed servers and they aren't offering new
    individual service.......
