How can I get yahoo to stop sending spam emails?

I have spammed them, and I have followed the instructions they contain to get them to stop, but THEY KEEP RIGHT ON COMING

PS I once went thru the procedure to join a yahoo group until it asked for a credit card #, which tends to make me very suspicious.

    Any 'instructions you followed' simply confirms that a live human is reading a valid email address. From now it it will never stop. (Ever (ever-ever)) Turn on automatic filtering and that will stop >90% of it:

    Options --> Mail Options --> General --> Spam Protection --> Automatically move spam to Spam folder

    When you see a new spam in Inbox, mark it as spam to help detect more of it.
