Stop wasting time, it's the most precious asset you have, filtering and deleting spam has become a huge problem, we lose messages we really want and waste even more time trying often in vain to rid ourselves of the junk.
Even personal communication and B-2-B plus one on one email is regularly filtered at the server level.
Experts estimate 40% to 70% of all email is currently blocked by spam filters!
Tips to Help You Control and Stop e-mail Spam
1. Get separate e-mail addresses for use in public forums, social networking sites , newsgroups and mailing lists. Never use your personal email address for this purpose -- or you'll be flooded with spam. Then, you can quickly scan through your real email acct. to see what's junk email and what isn't. Then your main personal email address won't be as jammed with spam.
For example, AOL users can set up a special user name for free, and use that for posting. Then, they can simply dump that account if it starts to pile up.
2. Think about using several for different purposes. It helps you to identify different sources and senders, thus filtering more effectively.
For instance, you may have one for personal use only by friends, family or colleagues that is never used to request information or to subscribe to newsletters, discussion lists, etc.
Business mail: Use this one just for pre-sales questions/orders, or for buying online. This can be setup through your ISP, web host or through any number of online e-mail service providers.
3. Some software tracks which addresses are getting junk email, and you can just re- subscribe to a new, spam-free address.

4. NEVER buy anything from a company that spams. There's another reason not to buy anything from a company that spams: over 95% of spam offers are scams! In fact, not responding to spam is the single most effective way to not get scammed on the Internet.
5. Filter your email. Using filters is key to managing your email effectively. It may take a short time to figure out how to do this, but it's definitely worthwhile.
You still want to get the email you want but filter out the spam.
