I figured out a solution to this type of Spam. There are key words they must use . . . gambling, sex, Viagra . . . all you have to do is create a mail message that sends emails with content using these words to the trash or a junk mail folder. Unless your friends write to you about these things,, you should eliminate most of this.

Is there a way to set up a mail rule (in any client software) that will automatically delete any email that does not contain your email address in the TO field? If so, you could take care of this automatically.

Many email programs have this feature, however doing so would delete mail on which you've been CC'ed or BCC'ed, including many mailing lists which put the mailing list name in the TO field, not yours.

I also received 'bounced back' emails claiming it couldn't be delivered. - I would just like to clearify, I did not send the emails that where coming back undeliverable.

I received emails like this every now and then. I also received 'bounced back' emails claiming it couldn't be delivered. I assumed my account had been hacked and changed my password.
