If its normal spam, then doesn't your ISP have a webmail to set rules to punt the stuff to a different folder? or just up the antispam setting on it.

Cheers for the reply. My antispam setting is on medium but they told me if I up it to high there's a danger that I might not get genuine emails. As for the sources, I can see the domains where these are coming from, the first 6 I looked up all came back to domains registered by that guy. How do I unsubscribe ? I once got told that if I open spam emails or reply to them then it confirms with the sender that the address is active and can make things worse. I'm not a computer pro, just dabbled for as long as they have been around so I'm unsure whether that's accurate
info. As for my ISP they have been pretty helpful. I have a portal that I can use to set up a junk folder at source but I haven't studied how to do that yet. Just don't want to miss important emails by setting it up wrong. I asked them if they had rules that they were able to set on my account to block emails with certain words within them from getting sent to me but apparently not. I'm getting bombarded with credit reports, hip replacement offers, loans, travel reservations and psychic predictions lol. Fkn annoying every 30 minutes !
