Not funny. I would love some place I can forward this stuff to so they can handle it. The emails that send them are one use emails. Someone got my email addy and supposed I would like this stuff without even asking. I can't unsub without joining first. How can I stop them?

I have Hotmail, not Yahoo. Anyone with suggestions for Hotmail? I have contacted their support but gotten nowhere with them. Sylvia

Their should be an abuse department at your email provider, contact them and they will tell you how to deal with this. Do NOT attempt to send them anywhere, you could end up blacklisted instead of the @*@#$%^ who started it.

Well, not much we can do about spam other than mark it and send to Bulk mail! Heck, read the Yahoo "Terms of Agreement"! It help you learn. This the Internet and not a private party that you can invite who you want to the party. Sorry, that just the reality.
Example; I will use About.com; they have good information, but, when you go there you get pop-ups and it filled with ads, this because they give the information free, but, they have to make money somewhere. IF, you subscribe for a free course on some topic of interest to you, which entails giving your e-mail, BAM! You be hit with an extra 20 emails a day!!!! But, the information is free.

If your email is filthy, wash it. The only way to stop it is by getting another email address and following simple rules--and having your friends follow simple rules, too.
What are those rules?
1. Never, EVER click a "Send this to a friend" link on a website. that means your email address is now on spam lists--along with your firend's.
2. Never give out your email address to lists or other places that request it. If they insist, give out a false email address, or get an email address where you can have junk mails sent and forget it.
3. Get Google's free email at mail.google.com. It's a LOT better than crappy yahoo.

I am assuming you have Yahoo Mail.
From you Yahoo Mail inbox go to
Options
Mail Options
Spam tab on the left hand side
Turn on spam control.
