Heres the deal. Not sure what email service you guys use, but i use hotmail, and I have decided that having to block specific email addresses to stop spam doesnt work.

thus, I am starting to ban the IPs from which the mail came. To get the IP, you need to (for hotmail) go into the options area, then go into the "mail display settings" area. Now set the message headers to full or advanced.

Now, when you recieve an email, at the top you will have a header looking like this:

get the IPs of the spammers and post em here....to block them, go to your blocked senders list and paste the addys there.

time for those bastards to die....
