Apologies if this has been raised before.
I am getting three or four really annoying e-mail messages every day. They have clearly randomly-generated two-word titles and are from names which are also probably made up; never the same one twice. I did open one, timorously, but I was so petrified it would bugger the computer that I shut it again before I'd made a note of what it said. But certainly, they aren't trying to sell me anything and they haven't crashed the computer (yet!) They just clutter my inbox and are getting more and more irritating.
What's the point? What are they trying to achieve? And anyone have any suggestions for blocking them? I've tried by the normal means, and it only blocks that particular fake sender's name.
:confused:
