    If they won’t remove your name, can’t you put them on your Yahoo “blocked” list?

    categorize it as ‘junk mail’ so it goes straight in the trash after 3 days on it’s own

    it is law that a commercial e-mail have a link to opt out of future mailings. if there is no link for that purpose it is spam. forward it to the fbi

    Welcome to the evil world of spam. Just because they say you can remove yourself, that doesn’t mean they’ll honor your request. Some spammers use remove requests as a confirmation that your e-mail address is valid and start sending even more spam. A better solution is to get a spam filtering program like the ones offered by Norton and McAfee, or if you’re using web mail most providers offer a bulk folder and/or filtering and blocking to catch unsolicited e-mails.

    If it’s coming from a Yahoo Group, just log in to the group and go to the “edit membership” page. You can choose not to receive e-mails there (select “web only”).
