I just apply this mail-rule:

Apply this rule after the message arrives
Where the Subject line contains 'cash' or 'money' or 'earn'
or 'looking for' or 'deal' or 'erections' or 'Credit' or
'addresses' or 'Prices' or 'Accept' or 'find out' or
'satellite' or 'income' or 'POUNDS' or 'viagra' or 'sex' or
'Fat' or 'Inches' or 'debt' or 'Mortgage' or 'Porn' or
'cost' or 'save'
Move it to the Deleted Items folder

It helps

I hate spam so much, it's annoying. But I get so mad when I
get so much spam I start losing emails from my friends cause
the spam has crammed it up to the limit. And I don't a
chance to check my maill all the time, just a few days and
you get sent so much shit. Do they really think people will
buy their stuff?!?!

That doesn't really help... I get everyday 2 or 3 mails from
with the following

subject: [j2wjd]
from:lajksbrqwadgv@yahoo.com

BTW: I hate spam!

Yeah, I've been getting "smart" spam where it pretends to be
good mail from friends!! Like "I got what you wanted" and
"RE: I really like you"

BASTARDS!!!

I don't get how it can work for them, on principle I never
buy from telesales people or spamming companies. Even if
it's a really good deal I get so annoyed at them..

Use 2 email addresses, one for friends, and one for signing
up for stuff. I never get spam on the friends email.

I usually get sent loads of shit from 'friends' who've
registered me for crappy joke type emails. I just either
unsubscribe or block then with the 'rules wizard' in Outlook

I used to do that, I had a hotmail one for spam, but it kept
getting closed down as I didn't check it more frequently
than once every 60 days. It's also a pain as stuff like
MP3.com send you stuff you want to know (like your tracks
are up) and also send spam.
