How to stop trash e-mails, wanna-be stalkers, and attacks from mutants

Sure, we all get tons of Klez-H type auto, generated e-mail viruses.
But say you have some stalker that is so frustrated by their lack of importance, creative impotence and total rejection by society that they won?t quit. There is an answer.

Trace the e-mail. Contact the e-mail SOURCE, repeatedly and as a doggedly as the malformed Internet ?user? does to you. Then set up filters to simply erase the next similar type of e-mail from coming in.

Here?s a very silly, juvenile and jealous repeated e-mail I kept getting (though the From: line changed).

Hi,greggdilorenzo,some questions
---------------------------------------------------------------------

The e-mail has no text in it, of course, but my firewall stripped the malicious attachment immediately and warned me?

RULE ONE ? Set you firewall or E-mail client to ?quarantine? all attachments to a closed area of your hard disk. This is not hard at all, depending on the actual program or client it should take 2-3 steps.

RULE TWO ? Right click the actual e-mail in your e-mail (using outlook) and choose ?options?. Copy all the text to a text processor:

Ay yes, this [email protected]? has been stupidly diligent lately, like a ?VILLAGE? idiot? I recognized this name.

RULE THREE ? Right click in the message body and do ?view source? Copy this text as well?

Ah? I won?t get into hex codes here, but this type of approach betrays the ignorance of the sender very clearly. The fact of the matter is that if step one isn?t followed, problems arise from the attachment here.

RULE FOUR - Go to a e-mail tracking service, such as http://spamcop.net, sign up for a free account and then paste all of the above info into the submit box. Press enter, and wait for the program to work.

RULE FIVE: Make sure it IS SPAM, and then take the appropriate actions, like contacting the administrator.
If you are polite, they usually respond, though it might take a few tries!

You can see they cancelled that user?s account. It worked. This doesn?t mean the mutant won?t just jump to another server of mailer system. But he/she had to actually ?work? for a second, thus our mission is successful.

I feel 1,000,000 issues would be resolved if people simply stated their real names and addressed REAL issues they have with members of this planet earth. But this is an idealist dream that never will be realized.

In the mean time ? TURN OFF THE SPAMMERS E-MAIL ACCOUNTS?. Contact the administrators!

Peace and love from NYC.
