Has anyone figure out how to stop that mail from getting in your mail box?

I don't know how they got my private e-mail address. I don't use my real
e-mail address in the newsgroups.

Sometimes the spammers just make things up

e.g.
(e-mail address removed)
(e-mail address removed)
(e-mail address removed)

They tend to do it for all the major email providers...such as earthlink

They also scan webpages and web forums for email addresses.

I've even heard stories that they pay monkeys to sift through all the munged
address
like
(e-mail address removed)

And fix them

Cheers
