How to block spam mail...please?
This person has been sending me one, two and even three mails everyday for the past few months. Everytime I block her/his addresses on Yahoo mail she comes back with a new one. She goes under the name of Adriana21 and her addresses look something like this: eqykmqwnqze@djsnhdh.com
How can I block her permanently?

I thought Adriana21 was my girlfriend. At least that's what her emails say. Blocking spammers is a losing battle because they change email addresses with each email. The best way to handle them is to mark each one as Spam. The more you mark, the better your spam filter gets at figuring out what's spam and what's OK for your inbox.
Here's some articles on spam to help you fight the good fight.
