Try a subscription to SpamCop to get your own back John. It does not
block spam, but it does trace the header and report the abuse of their
routers to the (probably unsuspecting) servers.
I have got rid of my 'imagopus" and my "macunlimited" addresses because
of spam. I have also stopped putting the @ sign in my signatures in an
attempt to defeat the people who scan the internet for new email
addresses.
Apologies if I have used incorrect terminology...

Can anyone recommend a spam or message blocker that can be coded to
block any incoming message where the "from address" comprises a jumble
of alpha-mumeric characters?
On topic ........ just returned from a five day visit to Prince Edward
Island where I took plenty of OM photos!
Thanks ahead of time for any and all advice.
