I just tonight received the return mail spam (virus etc.) with attachment. I did not open. I get two or three porn ones a day recently, which I quickly delete and empty the deleted folder. Just a reminder!!!

I also recommend setting up a rule in Outlook or Outlook Express.......This will block over %75 of spam, but it also blocks any legitimate email newsletters that you might get.....
Actually bouncing emails usually does no good at all. It just fills up your ISP's root mail account. If you have your own web site and email server, it will just come back to you and fill up your own root account email address. Any spammer worth their salt doesn't use a legimate return address or has their spam sending account set up to not accept mail. If you bounce their email it will be returned to your ISP and fill up their root account.] I know, bouncing probably does nothing to reduce spam and puts an extra burden on the net, but somehow it just feels good - you feel less of a victim.
