1. stop going to porn sites. thats the only way they get your email.
2. thats not completely true. I have been getting alot of porn lately through my email. It is Spam. It is horrible because this morning my 6 year old daughter and i were reading some emails and there was a spam with the word p*&&y in the subject. She is a very good reader and now i have to make sure she doesnt try to send her grandmother an email without me checking to be sure my yahoo is safe first. ps, i DONT visit porn sights. SPAM. and if you figure out how to fix it let me know because labeling it spam DOESNT work
3. You can not completely stop all spam, but you can help to put a big dent in it. First, try not to open any of them, that only makes them send more and more to you. Check mark them and click on 'Spam,' this should stop those addresses from being delivered to your inbox. Use your spam filter and block address. Look for the 'Options' link at upper right corner of mail screen and click on it Options/ mail options / spam preferences make sure spam guard is on, click on save changes Options /mail options / blocked addresses Enter the E-mail address you wish blocked and click on 'add block' you will never get mail from that address again. This should help you to control your spam. Other tips: Never open E-mail unless you are absolutely sure who it is from. Never give out your personal information to anyone. If at a website and you must sign up for something, check the entire page to make sure you uncheck any lines wanting to send you notices, info, or ads. Hope this helps.
