Some email servers, like Yahoo! have spam boxes. This deletes the message and classifies the sender. Outlook allows you to block senders in the Messages area. Some spammers have multiple sender IDs, so this isn't the complete fix, but it does tend to slow them down until they run the next load of garbage under a new sender. Another way of trying to get some feeling of revenge is to report them to the ISP or your local regulator. It at least attracts attention to spammers, which they really don't like. Most of the big ISPs have a zero tolerance to spam, and will listen if you make a complaint.

hi there, im not sure if they can be automatically deleted but some email providers do allow you to change your preferences and only recieve emails from the same provider you are with.
