I just received a post to my personal email addy FROM a spammer at my personal email addy. This is the default email addy for my whole email program, so I can’t blacklist it otherwise I’ll receive no email at all.
What do I do now – help!

don’t blacklist the address but use filters for the content instead
Thanks for responding Karim.
I can’t do that – I’m using Eudora (POP3) combined with MailWasher (which prevets my mail before download).
My present four email addies are channelled through my ISP into my default addy and then sent on to me.
I guess the only thing I can do is to delete the messages as they come in. There are going to be a bunch because the two received are from the health field and they’re passing the list around.
If anyone has a suggestion I’d appreciate it.

use imap4, this way you download only the headers
Thanks Karim,
I’ll give it a try

Ntaus did you have any luck with that? If not just pm me your contact details and i can walk you through it.
Hi Karim,
Thank you – if you don’t mind I’ll take a raincheck
So far there have been only two of that type of post returned. Maybe the list sale is not as widespread as I thought.
I’m holding off for the moment but, if it continues, I’ll call on you if I may.

If you got one, there is a good chance you would get many more. sometimes people you give your email to are spamming you, this is a bad thing but there isn’t a real good way to deal with it, yet…
