Topic Title edited. Yes, this is the Lounge area, and thus fairly free for most things. However, the all caps thing makes you look a bit silly, but the foul language in the Title was a bit over the line.

No, there is no quick fix. If there had been a quick fix at any point in time, his Forum wouldn't be here, as SpamCop would neve have come into existance. The rest of your commentary does have some answers, suggestions, and possibilities, but it takes a bit more time than a simple rant/tantrum to address them. Facts are out there (and even in here) ...

The only effective way to reduce the spam you recieve in your current inbox is to use filers or blocking lists. There is very little a individual user can actually do to stop spam from being sent.

Please fix your keyboard. Your caps lock key appears to be stuck. Please also keep the language G-rated.

The spam from any particular spammer does not end until that spammer stops (or is stopped from) sending spam. If you read the HTML of spam and/or use the removal methods, you are only acknowledging receipt of the spam and inviting more from that spammer and its fellow miscreants.

Some have found SpamVampire to provide them with some peace-of-mind.

Spiders that scrape web pages for email addresses have been around for a very long time. Some people have found that hiding new email addresses in graphics helps to stop those spiders, but it annoys casual web browsers that want to email you. An alternative is to use a web-form that doesn't reveal your address and that can't be abused.

Just sign up for a US$30 per annum SpamCop email account which will accurately separate the spam. Effectively allowing only legitimate email into your inbox. Your existing email addresses can all be forwarded (best option) to SpamCop or you can have SpamCop "POP" (up to 10) individual accounts which are then checked for spam and Viruses

If you wish to you can "Very easily Report (VER) at a click of mouse, all spam that has been sorted to your held folder.

This often results in Spammers being fined and or Jailed. It most certainly gets their spam run stopped as they try to send spam, and not after it is sent. SpamCops blocklist or SCBL will activate in minutes stopping spammies 5 or more hour spam run allowing those who use our members list to bit bin it before it gets to their inbox.

Becareful that what you report is spam as SpamCop will fne and or suspend one for deliberatly filing false abuse reports
