During the last three months I received a lot of that junk. Interesting that it all arrived for my TT mailbox. None arrived in my other mailboxes.

As each one arrived I placed the sender in my "block mail list," all 27 of them. I have not seen any of it for over a month now, so the blocking must be working.

I don't even open my spam folder, just empty the 73 or so I get everyday right into the trash.

Same here I am getting a bunch that are pdfs or whatnot so the word identification system is not catching the screwy words.

There ain't a whole lot you can do. I go into my options and just block the whole server. Seems to work.

If they wanted maximum impact the re line would have:

I checked your albums, NF. It looks like you live a lot like me. I have to get out to the Midwest again.

Gremlin - I hope you're not actually living like me. I have to struggle from day to day, what with people calling me a troll and such.

Sounds like you checked them in Matt's Photo Section. There are a lot more in WebShots, if you're interested. Plus I have many more to be posted one of these days.

ton's of junk. How about those with the seemingly random words strung together? What is with that?

Path I think it has something to do with trying to get a string of words that the Spam systems would identify as "safe"
