I just use Linux, and delete things with nonsense senders, recipient lists and 
especially subjects.  Anything that I miss won't hurt me anyway, as I run 
kmail from a user account that has no other function while I can get work 
done on other virtual desktops.  My main spam dump that I use when I visit 
newspaper sites and such is my AOL address (an appendage to La Esposa's 
account) that I would never use for anything serious.  I check into that 
every other week or so and make liberal use of the "Report as Spam" button.

should understand what an expensive proposition it is to cohabitate with
a narcissistic woman built like a stripper.  --  Tony Woodlief
