      Just highlight them and delete. Takes about 5 seconds. I think we all get this, and we all feel your pain. :)

              I would say around 99% of my email is spam or around 20 emails.

                I don't send any at all, so I think you deserve a slap.

                    I've noticed an upturn in spam recently. Some gets past the spam filter, one of which was pretty well done - pretending to be from Reed Recruitment with a link pointing to a malicious site with a drive-by payload of some sort.

                      I've no idea. It all goes to a spam folder which I never bother with and which is emptied automatically. When I tell you this is with Yahoo mail, no one is going to believe it. :)

                          300 - 500 .. I am the IT manager so I get "Normal" spam, plus the spam from vendors trying to sell IT related crap that I don't need or wouldn't get funding for anyway. And that's the spam that gets through the filters, I would hate to see that count if I had nothing in place.

                          I'm beginning to hate the news...the world was much nicer when I was illiterate Be careful which toes you step on today, they might be connected to the foot that kicks your butt tomorrow. You can't scare me, I have children.

                                I would say about 1 a day, but today have gotten 2 already in my inbox. there are about 20 from yesterday in my Junk mail. Unfortunately occationally something I want gets into Junk folder and do not check it often.

                                  That are "real" spam (i.e. make your manhood larger and the like)? Probably 2-3 a day. Emails I don't want (primarily from school)? 10-15 on weekdays, almost none on the weekends. I'm actually shocked at how little it is.

                                      Counting Linked-in, 20. Not counting Linked-In, zero.

                                        No idea. Gmail filters pretty much all of it. (And a few false positives, but I rarely check!)

                                          What the hell are all you people doing? I currently maybe get one a week... :D It differs though... Sometimes I suddenly get about 10 a day for a week and then it's gone again. No idea what triggers that.

                                          It's an OO world.

                                          public class Naerling : Lazy<Person>{
                                          public void DoWork(){ throw new NotImplementedException(); }
