What service are you using? I have Gmail and haven't worried about spam in years.

gmail. Yes.

Then open a hotmail account and use that for any crap you might engage in on the 'net.

Never reply to any type of junk mail. Never click through to 'unsubscribe' (you're just verifying that you are there.)

Another vote for Gmail. The amount of spam messages that make it into my inbox is probably less than 20 a year now.
