    I have to say....... yeah... what he said... we'd have to know what email you are using... hotmail, yahoo, msn, excite... etc... to be able to answer this question for you... other than that, use the filters, and email options to filter your email... Good luck!

set up your mail filters. set them to block either specific addresses that are sending you email, or to filter out email containing certain words like "free, sex, !!, $, etc." I cant tell you exactly how to do it becuase i don't know what client you are using for email

When you learn to type properly, all those e-mails just fly away.

When you get an unwanted email click on "report as spam" above the message. It should keep you from getting emails from that person.

If you use yahoo mail then it allows you to click on a button which says "SPAM" and that identifies that kind of email as junk mail...it will go into your "BULK" folder. But you have to look at your mail options or mail filters and you can put a specific address in the BLOCK ADDRESS feature...however a lot of spammers just change their address all the time so it's kind of pointless. I really like yahoo mail because it allows to identify the garbage and at least channel it to the bulk file rather than fill up your INBOX....then you can take a quick look in your bulk file to make sure its all garbage and simply delete it. You can usually tell by just the re or subject line that it's junk. Be smart and create a new email for yourself and any time you join anything use that one. That way all your junk goes to that one and not the one you want to use for every day corresponding.

In outlook express you just click on "Message" then click on "Block Sender" or you can click on "Create rule form message" that will let you choose key words or phrases or senders and tell the program what to do with messages with that criteria such as sending to trash folder.
