Pesky Spam

I am presently receiving spam from an online chemist – offering me products which I would have to ask the Doctor about.  I thought I could just put in the message blocker but they are using different e-mail addresses and variations of the contact web site address so my blocking list became extremely long without any affect.  Pesky people, grrr grrr.  Is there anything I can do?

Depending on which ISP you are with, if you visit the webmail version you should be able to strengthen your spam filter. Mine ranges from -10 to 1000 and you just have to find the setting which gets rid of most of it without you losing the emails you want.If you can be bothered, and with a lot of spam it takes time, please report your spam to www.spamcop.net who create the blocking lists used by most mail servers. The spam then gets reported to the service provider who should take the site down.
