Anti-Spam Filters

I'm sick of the spam I receive daily. I'm so sick of it that I've instituted pretty draconian filters for my email, filters that will insure that I never even see emails that meet certain red flags. When I say "never even see", I mean just that - emails that meet these red flags are deleted before I ever see them. I will never know that you sent me an email advertising cheap viagra, or debt consolidation, or penis enlargements.
