How many spam emails do you receive a day?

[poppie123]

I just wondered how many others are bombarded with spam emails each day.
I never used to get that many but for the past couple of months i get around 6 or 7 a day from different yahoo accounts and then the odd one or 2 from banks telling me my account has been suspended etc.

I just report them as spam and then delete them from my spam folder.
It drives me mad though!

I don't count but way too many. I mainly use gmail and it is very good at filtering so although the spam box fills up quite quickly, I don't have to deal with them. Basically, if you are not in my contacts you need to let me know if you send a message as it will be in my spam folder.

I get annoyed with the ones at work Hundreds of them. And I just want to It is such a waste of time having to delete them all.

I don't get any to my main email address but the one I set up for the DisVid gets about a dozen a day - all of them from someone in a foreign country somewhere who has come into millions and desperately needs my help to get it out of the country and into my bank account
The only reason I can see that I get these is because I posted the email address on here, and there are probably all sorts of programs out there looking for just that.

I get very few arrive in my Inbox, as they are filtered out by Yahoo before they reach me (and then again by Outlook if one gets past their filters). However, when I log on to my webmail at work, I do get to see how many have been moved to my Spam folders by Yahoo - previously it was about 20 a day, but recently it's dropped off massively and is now only 1 or 2.

I hardly get any as my Hotmail account is good at filtering them straight to the relevant folder.

I get about 50 a day in my spam folder, very few make it through to my inbox though.

Between us DH and I get 300 - 400 a day which are all directed to our Junk e-mail box. Occassionally we need to search through this to find a wrongly filtered e-mail, but thankfully not too often.

I don't get too many. Probably because I have my "proper" email address and then anything non-important related (like signing up for competitions etc.) I use my other email address.

I do get quite alot to the "proper" email address from all the companies I've bought from online, so annoying! I actually sat this morning and unsubscribed from a good few of them.

I don't get many either, maybe 2 or 3 a week (thank goodness)

Set up an email account for junk sites and use that one to sign up for anything that you think would spam you. My main emails get virtually no spam.

I get at least 10-20 a day but most go straight to the spam folder.
For some strange reason though all the Dis emails end up in there too
