If you have yahoo or hotmail you should be able to use a FILTER option to filter out almost all of the jun mail. I get alot of it, too, but I'm used to it so it doesn't bug me as much.

Another possibility; you can complain to the sender's servicer.

To do this, copy the offending message and e-mail it to:

postmaster@(address of the sender's servicer.com)

Include a short note explaining that you never asked to get this sort of thing, and would appreciate it if the postmaster would do something to discourage it.

It's worked for me.

if you're a little tech savvy try this: look at the message headers. make sure that it's not a bogus ip. also some people could be forging the from: part of the email address so you can never be exactly sure of whats going on.
