increase in spam?

Over the past week, I have had an amazing increase in spam on my ntl account. I used to be quite happy with the ntl email, in as much as I used to get very little spam - but now I am getting around 6-10 per day, mainly porn, loans and selling viagra! How can I stop this - I am already using mailwasher.

Re: [Merged] Spam with ntl email.

I`ve been getting a lot more in the last week or so too. All the recipient list is ****@ntlworld.com. So maybe they just scour the forums. Pain in the @$$ i know. Some times i just wamp a load of crap back at them. I`ve got no idea if it gets there but it makes me feel good about it.

I doubt it gets there, but if it does, it only proves that your email address is live, so you get added to the premium list.
