Hi Barry,
Been there as well.
1 - get a provider where a spam filter can be activated - mine does filter
it quite well
2 - get a free program called Mailwasher
In mailwasher you can blacklist, filter etc.etc. easily before actually
loading your emails.
I've sent you some more info directly.
Cheers,
Hans
