My advice to you is have one email address for personal correspondence and communicating with friends. Have another for business and such. Have a third for posting ads for Craigslist and such, and finally a fourth email that you only use as a spam catcher, so when you want to sign up for a website or a raffle or something, all the spam goes to that box, and you check it maybe once a month to clear out the spam.

I know it sounds like a lot, but email addresses are free. Also, I recommend g-mail, as they have a terrific spam filter. I went ot this system years ago and it has worked excellent for me.
