Email Spam...help!!

ok so Everyday I come home from work and check my email. EVERYDAY I have spam in my inbox. It usually just one email and Im trying to stop it. I tried to use the bouce feature, but I alway end up with a mail admin respnd saying the address is not found. The mail usually consists on just test saying:

We have some great news. Although it has taken some time, our brokers
have found 18 companies that are able to refinance you.

Please note that this is a time sensitive situation, take a second to
review the following form and we will be in touch shortly.

The bottom part is weird. Doesnt make sense. Well, Can anyone help me stop this? What should I do?

the bottom part to me looks like it could be a little blurb to try to throw off spam filters.

I really dont want to get a new email address. I mean so many people have this one already. So there is no way to stop this huh?

Get a gmail account and forward your email to it. Their spam filters are top notch.

If they're from the same address, set up a mail filter that deletes everything from that address. You could use ThunderBird; the mail filter in that can learn, so if you press the 'This is Junk' button enough times for each one that arrives, pretty soon it'll learn and start marking them as spam accordingly. You can then get it to automatically delete them, or stash them in the Junk folder.

Be careful with bouncing - many times, the email address used is either random (as appears to be the case here) and so doesn't work, or it's somebody else's real email address, and they'll be getting all your bounce messages. Spammers are not honest people who use their own addresses! Once my address was used as the 'From:' of a spam and I was getting bounces and error reports for weeks

i have all that stuff filtered to my junk folder in mail.app

How? :dummy:

SpamLocator from geobytes.com should do it. Hope that helps dude!

I personally just ignore the spam, or delete them as they enter mail.app.
