The number one worse thing you could ever do is try to unsubscribe to spam. This just confirms that you exist from them. One possible method is to run your mail through a filter like SpamAssasin through your ISP. Here is an article by someone that gets 30K plus emails per day. techguylabs.com/ radio/ Main/ StopSpam

Either get kaspersky's anti spam filter or change your email if its worse already
