[QUOTE="PaulB, post: 13653, member: 28"] Oh that it were that simple. :( The problem for the VOCSC is that their email address has been used on all manner of publications, emails, websites etc. which is where the spammers pick them up. They use applications that trawl the Internet looking for email addresses. Using a Mac will make absolutely no difference to whether or not you get spam I'm afraid. One of my customers has been getting over a million spam emails every day for at least the last 4 years. We filter those out in the "cloud" before they ever get near the intended recipient's network. There are really no hard and fast rules for preventing spam, but the less times that your email address appears out on the Internet and that includes being written in forum messages, the better. If you do need to write an email on an open forum, try to use the following method... name "at" domain "dot" com. If you spell it out, the trawlling tools won't recognise it and pick it.
