as an FYI for you:
keep two email accounts open. 1 from your ISP, use this one for business and family members. 1 free one with gmail or yahoo etc.., use this one for registering at websites etc.. That way your everyday email address wont get spammed as a result of entering your email address for stuff.

also check your spam filters and add the domains for every spam message you get (this will block not only that address, but every address at that domain.) You may even (depending on your provider) be able to set specific rules to allow only certain domains/addresses through.
I already have another email account, i was just asking because I hate spam, and I don't even know how they're getting past my spam filter.
