consumer expressions

can anyone tell me why i cant get rid of them? i have at least a spam a day from them, i never open them, i always hit the spam button, but to no avail. i have yahoo as my default mail and usually they are quite good at sifting the spam out and relegating it to the 'bulk' folder. everything except 'consumer expressions.com'. what do i do? aloha and happy sunday

 

Hi!
Try THIS:
Sign in to Yahoo! web mail and at the top right select 'Options'
In the section;
Add Block
Enter email address (or domain) to block: enter; ConsumerExpressions.com
Click; Add Block
That should put an end to it.

didn't work!!! what else can i try??

 

i wrote to yahoo. this is their reply. can someone translate it?

Hello Laurie,

Thank you for writing to Yahoo! Mail.

If you are facing problem with messages coming to your inbox from a
certain address, you may create filters to direct them to the folder of
your choice. The following are some helpful tips for setting up your
filters:
1. When setting up filters, choose words or phrases that will
reliably select the messages you want. Check the box next to "match
case" to filter based on lowercase and/or caps. For instance, filtering
based on the sender's email address in the "To:" or "Cc:" field is
generally a good choice, while filtering based on common words in the
text body is generally a poor one.
*Please note: Each field may contain only one key word for the filter
to
work properly. Entering multiple words in each field may result in
receipt of unwanted messages.
2. Use wildcards. In any of your filters, you can use an asterisk
(*) to designate one or more characters. You can use this character at the
beginning, in the middle, or at the end of a string of characters. For
example: s*mple
will stand for not only for "simple," but also for "sample," "stmple,"
etc.
3. Incorrect rules can often occur if you choose negative criteria
such as, "does not contain" combined with wildcards and/or other
positive criteria (such as "contains" or "begins with"). Please note that an empty filter is not actually empty. If you create
an empty filter at the top of your list and save it without changing
anything about it, all of your messages will be sent to your Inbox,
bypassing any other filters you may have. This happens because an empty
filter means: "If the 'From:' field contains an empty (null) character,
then direct the message to the Inbox." All messages contain a null
character, so all messages meet this criteria.
The good news about mail being directed to an unanticipated folder is
that it will show up in the Unread Messages summary on your "Welcome"
screen, so you will still know that it has arrived.
4. The order of your filters makes a big difference. For best
results, put your narrowest filters at the top and your broadest
filters at the bottom. Once a message matches a filter, it is delivered to a
folder and not compared to any more filters. Suppose an important piece of mail is sent from "somebody@companyname.com" to your account and you have two simple filters set up:
Filter A
If "From:" contains "companyname.com", then deliver to: Company XYZ

and

Filter B
If "From:" contains "somebody@companyname.com" then deliver to:
somebody

If Filter A is above Filter B, the message will be compared to Filter A
first. Since it contains "companyname.com" in the "From:" field
(somebody@companyname.com), it will be placed in the "Company XYZ"
folder.

On the other hand, if Filter B is above Filter A, the message sent from
"somebody@companyname.com" will be compared with Filter B first. The
result will be that the "From:" field matches, so the message will be
directed to the "somebody" folder and not to "Company XYZ".

Please note: If you configure all fields for a filter with the same
text, incoming messages will have to fit the exact criteria in order to
be filtered properly.

Yahoo! Mail gives you the option to create up to 15 filters to
automatically sort your incoming messages into designated folders or
your mobile device.
