  • Answer:

    There is a button at the top that says spam. Click it and any further emails from that address will go directly to your spam folder. Otherwise look for an unsubscribe link in the email.

I'm convinced that without paying for Yahoo MailPlus you get no Spam protections. All spam goes directly into my Inbox and my Spam folder is empty. I mark "spam" and it appears to not learn anything. I mean really...an email from a "Nigerian Prince trying to get 25 million out of his country!" How sophisticated of a algorithm would it take to avoid an email like this? I'm using yahoo less and less now. Sad...

Yahoo! doesn't have the ability to block spam based on subject line words. Your email client (the program you use when you download email to your computer) probably has the capability to block these messages based on subject line words; mine does. Yahoo! only blocks 500 addresses. The good news is that you can get everything from the same address or the same domain name blocked, but 500 is the limit. Is it a small comfort that you're not alone? I'm getting "those spams" too - 400-500 EVERY DAY! Some are in Russian, and I've tried to get those blocked at Yahoo!, but it can't. They come in from different email addresses each time.

You are not alone as I was receiving 600 of these per week and I am female!! Just mark them as Spam and if Yahoo do their job, the addresses should be blocked but I found they kept re-appearing and I had to get very stroppy with Yahoo and BT before things improved. Good luck. Can't help wondering what pleasure these jerks get from sending such email.
