I'm sick of it. Yesterday, I checked emails after 3 days with the computer off and I had > 130 emails of which 3 were not spam. I use Spampal to filter it into a separate folder but it still takes forever to download the spam.

is it worth reporting spam to anyone? I have tried Spamcop in the dim & distant past, but found that it took even longer to deal with the spam and I was never convinced that I was achieving anything. What do you advise? Ignore it, report it ( it's complicated to understand the headers, my emails are mainly received by a uk2.net domain address that is memorable and fun, then sent to the NTL address so I don't want to get UK2.net labelled as a spammer, and I am never sure which "received from" lines in the headers are genuine and which are not).
