Regular junk (snail)mail just gets tossed in the trash right without a second thought right?

Unfortunately email spam is fact of internet life. Just delete it and forget about it and save your stress for important issues. Just like junk mail from the USPS, you'll never get rid of it.

What pi$$es me off are the recorded spam calls to my cell number. If I dont recognize the number I dont answer. If I don't recognize the email sender, I just mark as spam. The next time it goes to my spam box. I look in the spam box once a day (make sure nothing good gets thru), click on 'check all' and hit delete.

If you want something free (like email) you'll get crap. Want to curb the crap? Start charging senders for email, and spam will drop to nearly nothing. Eithing way we all pay. Think of how much junk mail you'd get if postage was free.
