Most all ISP's provide configurable anti-spam tools. If you haven't "tweaked" it, then it's still set at the ISP default settings, which is normally pretty strict. You can also add addresses to a white list within these configurations.

Speaking of spam, anyone had trouble with spam text-messages being sent to your cell #? If so, were you able to make it stop and how?-kyrathaba (September 17, 2012, 07:00 PM)

That's USA only last I heard. :)
kyrathaba:
These aggravating text-messages all come from the same number, 323-284-2743. They all start with "Alert:" and then there follows some brief message...
... "Luke B. requested Nintendo 64 w/ games & accessories near Kansas City, MO."
or
..."Lucas requested Junk Car near Lawrence, KS."
and the text-messages each end with "Can you help?"
TaoPhoenix:
Update: Still no activity and/or top-level blocked, from that site to my test email, so I rate it as a dud.
