People will give you many answers to this question. Have multiple email addresses, report the spammers... None of these work. The spammers have MANY tricks. To get by filters they just use images instead of text. To change where a spam is coming from they infect millions of unsuspecting computers with viruses that work as 'spambots', sending out spam emails and hiding the actual sender of the spam. The ONLY way that I have found to completely eliminate spam is a free email service that I found. http://www.EnterTo.com uses channels. If you get a spam through a channel, you just delete it.

There is no way you can rid yourself of SPAM, however, you can reduce it greatly by having more than one e-mail address. Use one for e-mail to friends only. This should keep it "clean." Use the other for searches, purchases, whatever. It will fill with SPAM but at least it will keep it out of your "private" address.

In Yahoo Mail, Options, General Preferences, set preferences to display about 25 messages at a time. This way you can quickly look down the list of senders. If it is all SPAM, click "check all," then click "delete." Gone, with two clicks.

If any wanted e-mail accidentally goes into the "bulk" folder, click the box preceding the sender, then click "move to," where you can move it to your inbox.
