I recently took the standard online I.Q test and to get my results I had to give my email address. Well I screwed up and accidently gave it my real email address and now the spam is terrible I keep making rules to auto delete the spam but it keeps coming from different sources so every few hours I have a few new spam messages. I can't take this I am tired of making rules only to get more spam, right now I have about 50 rules and its only been like 2 weeks. Maybe that isn't a huge amount but when you have to deal with all of them it really gets so annoying does anyone know what I can do?

abandon ship. get a new address. I have had to recently abandon a personal account specifically for that reason. spammers never sleep, become invisible.

Dam I was hoping it wouldn't come to that but I guess I will just have to.
