Clever! unsubscribe lets em know your email is legit,get ready for a larger influx as your address gets passed around.It's real simple if it's spam & gets in your inbox flag it as spam now that email address it came from goes straight to spam folder problem solved,now use delete button

when you get these you have to mark them as junk.once they have your email address they have you.like you said,they just change their email address when you block them.i get them too and the only real solution is to make a new email account.just make a new account and never go back to the old one.it seems to me that they will close it due to inactivity.either way,who cares?

get a yahoo account not only can you get throw away email addresses if you get spammed you can delete the master account,however doing so means the name will not be able to be used again,be sure to read their help file so you understand how it all works
