Hello,
I have also had an increase in spam. I get marking it as spam, but yet, it still goes into my inbox. I have also blocked them, but they still come through to my inbox.

- It takes time to deal with spam, and it's an ongoing battle, as spammers find new ways to spam.
- ISPs can't stop spam. No one can truly stop spam. At most they can reduce it a bit, and temporarily.
- Continue to mark stuff as spam, then delete it.
- If you would like the mods here to get involved, post under Tech Support, but remember that spam is like weeds; it continues to exist even when you think you've eradicated it.
- Make sure to check your behaviour -- a lot of spam happens because of what people do, where they post, etc.
- Have more than one email account.
