One of my e-mail accounts has been getting a constant (and annoying) flow of Viagra-type drugs and Rolex ads.

I can't filter them because the ads always intentionally misspell the names of any words that could be "keyworded".
I can't block sender because it's a different "from" address every time.
I can't reply and request to be removed from their mailing list because there is no link for that option.

What to do?

Welcome to the 21st Century.

Along with these ads for drugs and fake watches, you'll be getting offers for something to increase the size of your johnson.

Nothing can be done that I know of.  The delete option is your friend.

Yes "johnson size increasing" is another on. The thing is all of the ads look pretty much the same... like I'm on some mailing list from the same "business" that just gets new e-mail addresses every day to avoid getting slammed for their solicitation.

All I can say about it is this:  WHAT kind of man who knows enough to operate a computer buys something like that?

They MUST be selling some to SOMEBODY to make it worth the trouble but WHO?

Ya don't go out Saturday night with the johnson ya want, you go with the johnson ya GOT.
And what ya got is IT, no adjustments.

Spam is getting worse everyday.
FOR THE LAST TIME YOU SPAMMERS... I DO NOT WANT BIGGER BOOBS NOR DO I WANT A BIGGER................................... HOO' HOO!

In all seriousness it's getting out of hand. Wish there was a way to make it stop.

A chant by yours truly....
"Stop the madness, stop the spam, find the spammer and body slam!"

The only thing I can think of is having your ISP change your e-mail address regularly... like once a month... but there are obvious drawbacks to having to go through that BS...

I too get this shit but it didn't start until I got e-mailed by an arfcom guy for questions on my perscription drugs!!  Coincidence??? Maybe, maybe not.    

If they would start listing the addresses of these assholes who generate spam & virius' (sp?), thiey would damn sure get a little home therapy from me!!!
