Wow, what a pain...! I had 57 email messages tonight (since last night) and 55 of them are unwanted spam. Using Outlook Express, I have the filters set to trash messages with subjects containing (over 50) key words, and to trash certain key spammers. Clearly filters aren't too effective. One problem is that I still have an ATT Worldnet email address that I've had since 1993 forwarded to my primary email. Many of my contacts still think the ATT address is my primary email address, although it is not. Still, I don't yet want to close the account. Any thoughts or strategies to minimize spam would be appreciated.
