Karen, it helps, when you go to any website, to leave a fake name (for example, my emails are not signed with my real name, and you can set this up from your web browser preferences), this will not stop all the smut, but helps. Also, create in any of the free e-mail providers, one user id that you can use anywhere you go, and you only provide your "real" identity to those you contact directly.

As they say, never, ever, request to be removed from their mailing lists, since this just proves to them that you are reading their stuff, and they will keep sending it.

Something I have done, and I don't know if it works well or not, is to send them back their own e-mails. After a fashion, they stop sending their stuff . . . for a while anyway.

Good luck to you.

Maybe one of the guys here, who is more knowledgeable will provide you with technical advise?

Saludos!
