How do I stop from getting so much junk mail in my ...

How do I stop from getting so much junk mail in my spam folder.  It's worse than the US mail. It was suggested that I change my mail setting to automatically delete all spam, but I don't want to do that because there are times when I get mail from someone who is not on my accepted list.  Some of the mail I get appears to be of a sexual nature and is offensive and some of it appears to be from someone trying to get personal information.  I just don't know why I get so much junk mail since I don't do much surfing or shopping on the internet.. so how do they get my email address?

We block a lot of spam but some gets through to the Spam Folder.  You can set blocked email to be deleted instead of going to your Spam Folder by going to Settings | Spam Controls.
