unwanted emails?
I keep recieving unwanted emails from a phamacutical company offering me various sexual enhancements and little blue pills. I have not asked for this and have not been on any web sites that could be connected to this. I have contacted them to unsubscribe, I know you should not really do this but I was, and still am recieving 15 odd emails a day. Each email comes from a different address so although i report every one as spam it has not lessoned the amount i recieve. PLEASE HELP
Update:thanks all for replying

You've somehow gotten on a list (it's nearly impossible to say how) that's being sold to various vendors. You have two options:
Send the unwanted mails to the spam folder, which you already are doing. Eventually they'll run out of domains.
Get a new email address and be careful where you post it.
I took a spot on a blog site and while readers can contact me, the email is blind. For months, I got 12-15 emails a day from the deposed king/queen/prince of Nigeria asking for help in recovering the family fortune. I just spammed everything I didn't recognize and eventually it stopped.
When you responded to one, you let them know that your account was active and the emails will likely continue.
The best you can do is continue to mark them as spam and do not open them, let them go into your spam folder and ignore them. The spambots will never cease, the spam will never die.
If you want to, you can open up a fresh account and start over. If you do, make the address difficult for the spambots to guess by using an unusual combination of words and include one or two numbers and underscores.
Your current mail provider is doing a good job if it is recognising spam and putting it in the appropriate folder.
Everybody gets spam, some more than others and you don't need to subscribe to anything to get it. They basically send out millions of emails to random, guessed addresses and wait for someone to open them and respond, letting them know that a particular address is active and in use. They then bombard you with constant spam and share your address with other spammers. :)
Do I as I do when these turn up,block the sender. It usually works for quite a while. I dont go to any websites that might cause them to come but I have a friend who's brother sends jokes & pictures & she forwards them onto me,I then get those kind of emails.
use yahoo as many of the undesirable emails finally end up in junk mail folder which ever get in ur mail container could be marked junk mail and u wont acquire any from that e mail handle in ur mail inbox yet u can not completely end undesirable emails like u can not end each and all the undesirable issues in life
Hi, I get them aswell i have contacted them to tell them to unsubscribe me but i get more now,
Mark that sender "junk mail" in your mail program.
