Why do the same emails that I mark as SPAM keep returning to my inbox over and over again??

The spam mails look the same but they are coming from a different address each time. That's why the blocker cannot block them. Unfortunately that's the nature of spam mail these days.
According to the anti-spam experts, we are seeing far more spam mails now than ever before. And the spammers are becoming more clever about getting past the spam filters. That's why more spam is making it to the Inbox instead of going straight to the Bulk folder. There are a few basic things we can all do to keep spam to a minimum...
1. Spam mails that go straight to Bulk should be left there. You can empty the Bulk folder any time you want, but never NEVER open spam mails.
2. Spam mails that land in your Inbox should be marked as Spam so that they are moved to Bulk and placed on the Blocked list. (Blocking an address prevents mails from being received from that address again in the future.)
3. Any email that you are the least bit suspicious about should be deleted immediately. Don't let curiosity get the better of you. Simply opening a spam email out of curiosity could alert the spammers that you have an active email address (they probably didn't know it before), to which they will most certainly send TONS of spam mail in the future.

Do you have your email configured to have Spamguard on?? Also, many emails appear to come from the same place or have the same subject BUT, they are not.
Check our your spam settings and keep clicking the spam emails as spam. Don't open them first, if you are sure they are spam. Sometimes that sends an alert back to the originator and they will spam you more.
Good luck. I've never seen so much spam lately. I have about 350 in one day this week!
