Sue:

In your particular case, signing up for a spam protected email service
is probably the way to go.  There are programs u can get, the 1 I
think is the most accessible being spamPal, but it does require some
configuration to run on your computer, & they make it sound easier
than it is. The problem w/the spam protected email services is that
they either have a graphic (or, in rare cases) an audio captia in
order to verify yourself, neither of which would be particularly
beneficial for you. Programs like spamPal actually have a database of
known spammers plus they use other criteria as well to filter it out.
