I get alot of spam mail, and my email sends them directly to a bulk box, which makes it easier to delete them. Soemtimes, I will click on the unsubscribe button they have hidden at the bottom of the email, and then I start getting even more spam by the end of the week. Anything I can do?

Just ask Taxx to stop emailing you

Why must you do that. Taxx and I are doing very well at getting along here, and you have to come and say something like that.

Chances are you were hit with random mail and by giving them your email address through "unsubscribe" they DEFINITELY have it now. You're pretty much fucked.

Never ever ever use the unsubscribe option on spam.

I have not now, nor ever had a problem w/ spam, and on the rare occasion I have gotten them unsubscribe has removed me from their list, it usually takes a little while to get off their list, and sometimes it leads to more lists, but eventually I got off all of them.

If you are so far gone that unsubscribe is useless then change your email addy, dont subscribe to jack and never give out email addy to any websites.
