most service providers have an abuse email address. Forward it to them.
abuse@xxxxx.com

What ever you do, don't reply as they will then know that you exist. I have daughters and so feel for you, I would suggest that you use a spam filter or message rules to stop the messages getting through. I think we all get emails that we find offensive and often they contain similar points like "re", block all emails that have a subject line "re" or what ever yours contain.You could also report the messages to your I.S.P.. If your female never let it be known on line, use A. Smith rather than Anne Smith. I also have a "throw away" email address which I only use on line, no friends or business associates know this address. Hope this helps.

It is considered a form of harassment by communication, so depending upon where you live you could have your service provider track whom they are coming from and probably file a local police report.

Are you using a POP3 e-mail or an online one like Yahoo Mail?
If you are using POP3, try using a program called Mailwasher (http://www.mailwasher.net/). It allows you to block out keywords and e-mail addresses.
If you are using an online e-mail, try configuring it to block keywords.
Always report any abuses to your e-mail provider!

You should print the harrassments out meaning everything offending that they say about you.Then you should take it to your parents.If it is very serious then you should call the cops and have them take a look at it.

Report them to your email service, e.g., xxxxxxxx@yahoo.com.

simply e-mail them back and say you'll press charges if they don't stop.
