But how do I make my ISP/Server - a "local" tie-up with Yahoo! and things went rapidly downhill when they linked up - improve their spam filtering ?

For the last 3 months I have received a daily spam e-mail from each of these two "Sheauregrm" and " Waltraudvhz". Slightly different Subject headers, changes from "comfirm e-mail" to "Account notification" or similar on a regular basis. 3 months lot now.

I initially reported them to my ISP as Spam on a daily basis, then stopped wasting my time, and also put them in my Outlook Blocked Mail list - no good whatsoever.

All that happens now is that they go straight to my Junk Mail folder instead of my Inbox. I've just emptied my Junk Mail folder of a weeks supply of them.

One could weep.

Forgot to say ........ This has nothing to do with Gmail, and they by-pass the Norton spam filter stuff that came loaded on this Windows H'Eight machine, and my Eset Nod32 filter on a Windows 7 machine.
