Unwanted emails.

Subject: Unwanted emails. Sat Aug 22, 2009 12:43 am

Normally, it is easy to SPAM unwanted emails. However today I received an email that shows it is coming from my own email address. It is an advertisement for Viagra. The subject reads: "First Part (1/3)"
How do I handle this?

That's a clever way to avoid the spam filter. But is it? How often do you send emails to yourself? I would add your email address to your spam filter. You will know if you have sent a message to yourself and can check your spam folder to retrieve it.

You're selling Viagra now?

Thanks Shelagh.
No Dick, I'm not selling it or using it - yet.

There actually was a time I sent e-mails to myself. That was to transfer some documents from a Mac to a PC. I copied and pasted the Appleworks documents into the e-mails and sent them to myself. On the PC, I copied and pasted them back together in Microsoft Works.
