In this case, spammers have got two level of success ... First we did receive unsollicited messages, that I considere to be a kind of violation of property. Non depending of law, I can decide to respond or not, and I can decide if law allows to defend, or if it doesn't to agress spammer. The second level of success is that people generates lots of Emails, ..., sorry but I found it funny. Well. My attitude is to leave mailbox open, and to put most of contents in the basket. Filtering is not possible, as well as spammers use some technics that we have not time to study. A software filter could try to examine coherence of Emails. Such as a specific format which could contain legal informations. A legal mail should contain a real reply address, or something that certify that sender exists, and is ready to respond to any asks. If messages I receive does not contain some informations, I can decide to destroy them. If messages does not contain but come from precise addresses, I can decide to keep. It is an idea. When I take my mail in my post-mailbox, at home, I have the same attitude. Rgrds
