| Post subject: | Spam Viagra and Larger Tackle |
OK I have almost given up ona couple of email address' due to getting bored of being offered Viagra & tackle enlargement pills/pumps/goggles etc (which I don't think I need but others may dissagree??) and would like some advice on tackling this (excuse the pun). General free email address, Microsoft office (outlook or outlook express) and I am now getting 200 emails a day and looking for a cost effective and time effective solution - come on you geeks

Stop signing up for pron sites with them then 
My hotmail one gets 2 spams a year. I don't use it for anything at all other than emailing people I know. I have a special email which I use to sign up for everything. It does seem that most hosts are willing to sell email lists on not just the niche ones lol SO Get new email address. Only use it for known contacts. Does seem to work for me |

Not having any problem myself but maybe they've heard about my generous proportions

Or your legendary Scottish short arm/deep pocket tendancies
I wonder if my telesales tactic would work. You could try replying to the email selling them timeshares for example
Since adopting this approach with telesales I hardly ever get calls. Sad really as I've hatched this new plot where I try to sell them my decrepid garden shed |

I'd advise against replying to spam e-mails, this then confirms the e-mail address is an active one! My advice would be to systematically add filters to your e-mail client to auto delete Viagra stuff etc Quite a few mail servers offer the option of adding in a Spam filter directly at the server so you never see it, do you have this functionality? Good to see Don is as optimistic as ever!
