OT-=I keep getting all those emails about refinancing

your property and the porn emails. Is there a place to complain about them report them?I don't want a spamware program because I can never find things that are sent to me and they seem to get lost. (I'm not the least bit savvy about hardware things.)
Thanks for the help!

I always forward them complete with headers to [e-mail address]
as well as the spam reporting address of my ISP

I always respond with an email or phone call advertising my SA services.

All that does is let them know they spammed a valid e-mail address and will continue spamming.

Sylvia is right (as usual!)

Never respond to spam in any way! Clicking on a link, even a remove-my-address link, ensures that your email address will go into the spammers list of valid email addresses.

The only effective response is to forward the email, including header, as Sylvia has suggested.

Let me clarify. When I get home loan emails, I know that my area is being targeted by that lender, so I research the company (google) and call or email asking who to contact to offer my SA services. Just another marketing technique. BTW, I don't respond to the porn spam, I just forward them to my hubby! j/k

Thats a really good idea Blueink!

That is, the lender idea- not the porn
