"Loving the girl next door is a great adventure Don't think too long!" I had literally no spam on my e-mail. Sometimes I got an unwanted although legitimate newsletter which I've accepted at some point and had to unsubscribe. And that's all. But like a month ago my email address went to some malicious server. Obviously I have entered it somewhere and now I'm stuck with a "hot neighbor girl". BTW this is not even true, all of them are old married ladies. Anybody knows how to get rid of that? Email addresses have seemingly random domain names. The recent one was lynda_henderson[at]profilaxrs.com.br. "Profilaxrs" looks like a legitimate site so the address is clearly fake.

Flag it as spam until the AI figures it out and starts auto-flagging it? (but this should have kicked in by now) Also ban any mention of any variation of the word "love", it does not occur in legitimate emails.

Gmail is smart enough to filter it from the very beginning. It goes straight to a "spam" folder. I just don't want to receive it at all.
If it's any consolation, an 83 YO mother of a friend of mine is getting dozens of gentleman's vegetable enlargement emails per day, all of which are getting caught by her email client and sent to the junk folder. Which upsets her in case the grandkids see them. And I can't get rid of them either ... :sigh:

Hey! My mom signs her emails with the word love! Though come to think of it, she's the only person I know who does... (You may draw your own conclusions ;P )

My service provider has what I consider the ultimate solution to spam. I can remotely prime their spam filter with user names, account names, even entire domains. For example entering *@*.ru in their black list bans the entire Russia top level domain. Spam from any entity in the black list is summarily deleted by their servers. It is never even downloaded to my machine.
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

Trouble is that a lot of this crap comes in from Gmail or similar addresses - and you can't blacklist them or many friends will never get through. Yes, you can block individual Gmail accounts, but they change them so quickly...

I love the ones you get from yourself. I routinely look at the email address which quickly tells me that it is junk, then I see that it is my address, meaning spam.

So you don't think she's getting e-mails saying "Fat, sweaty, Computer geeks in your area want to meet"?
