My work e-mail address was free of spam until I subscribed to a mailing list hosted by Yahoo. Then I started getting all kinds of junk.
To help get rid of it, I tried
MailWasher. It grabs the headers off the mail server and uses filters to categorize the mail for you. That part works pretty good but the best part is you can check a box and it will send a bounce message to the spamming scum bag telling him your address doesn't exist. It also can add the sender to a black list so you'll never see anything from that address again. I've been using it for about a week and it's reduced the amount of spam I receive dramatically.
