<p>I see the email I previously sent (14 Sep) went just to John
Niolon; I neglected to copy the list. Dang. Here is my
recommendation for Thunderbird also.<br/>
</p>
<p>I would recommend using Thunderbird <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/"><https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/></a>
as your mail application. It will interface with any mail server,
has adaptive junk mail filtering that works quite well, and it
doesn't load remote content by default (which is one way spammers
know there is a human looking at their content, so they can send
more!).</p>
<p>As Paul Parkanzky said, DON'T click any links or open any
attachments in suspicious emails; they are usually vectors for
malware, and provide another signal to the spammers that you
exist, and are vulnerable.</p>
<p>I do not recommend gmail; the price you pay is they snoop every
email you send or receive to characterise you for targeted ads. I
avoid it whenever possible.<br/>
</p>
Donald.

<p>I second the use of Thunderbird. Except that I use it's
adaptive (learning) spam filter, so that it moves mails that it
thinks are spam into a spam filter. And then I go in every few
weeks and skim through them and "unspam" any that weren't spam.
Takes 5 minutes. And helps train the filter.</p>
<p>And I use this computer for researching shop tools and
techniques. :)</p>

gmail is fine if you don't mind Google reading, analyzing and
categorizing your email:<br/>

I use Thunderbird--open source client from the Mozilla
people--in POP mode and every time I get a spam email (20 or so
a day), I create a filter on the major domain of the sender.
It's an inconvenience, but at least I get the satisfaction that
the next garbage that site sends goes straight to a local trash
folder. T-Bird also has a decent calendar.<br/>

Get yourself a Gmail account. 99.9% of that stuff gets
filtered right out.
