Another spam question

[LikeaRock14]

I put my email in my sig here and in FSC in my sig., did the no spam thing, but I think I'm still getting spam.....

I'm getting all these ghost emails like "Mail Delivery service umkown" or something, it's pissing me off. And on the dsl email we're getting all these "no subject" emails w/ no message.....

 

How do I make it stop????? Just take my email out of my sig???

Removing the email from your sig most likely won't stop it.

 

Get a good security suite like NIS (Norton Internet Security) and configure it's spam blocker.

Once your email address has escaped into the wilds of the internet the only sure way to eliminate spam:

 

1. Change your email address, never use if for posting to any public forum, chat, usenet, etc, etc. Get a second throwaway email account to use for public use. Never read it.

 

or

 

2. Spam filtering software at your ISP is best, locally on your computer is acceptable but then your bandwidth is still chewed up going through messages that are tossed. Only problem is that desireable emails may sometimes be filtered out as spam.
