Spam, spam and more spam....
My main website email has been receiving hundreds of spam emails a day over the last several days... They're all the same topic "Enlarge your penis"..Blocking them isn't helping because they're all coming from different address's.. My account isn't being used to send spam, I'm just receiving it.. Is there any way to stop this? If I delete my account for a few days, will I be able to create the same email address again? I had this problem a few years ago with another account and it seems like that's what I had to do... Any advice?

SPAM email.
Has something changed in the SPAM filter? This past week, I have begun to RECEIVE a lot of SPAM email. With this email account, I NEVER received SPAM. I must go through each one to find the email that is really intended for me. Thanks for your help.

spam.
What is up with the spam? You put in a new spam filter that doesn't block words like penis or sexual? You have got to be kidding. And of course no support on the weekend as if no one works weekends.

Spam is out of control!.
Last week my Intuit email was moved to Homestead. Problem is, ever since that took place, I've been inundated with "special offers" -- not just items for sale but also those wonderful "investment opportunities", "sob stories - need help transferring funds to the US" ... every type of spam, con and annoyance that I've heard about is NOW entering my email ... when I have NEVER seen any before. I haven't gone to any new sites since the change-over, accepted anything through this account or anything else. Nothing has changed ... except this stuff is showing up.
I need to know if there's a way to find out where it's coming from, if there's a way to stop it AND to know if there's a way to make sure that none of this is being passed along to my clients (even though I mark every one of them as spam). Ideas? Suggestions?
Thank you!

Huge Spam problem since the midweek email outage.
Ever since the email outage last week, we've been getting large amounts of spam to our company email accounts. I know this is not due to any actions on our part. One of my coworkers is away from email out of the country and another is only an account I monitor. All are receiving large amounts of spam.
What is the cause and how will homestead fix the problem? I don't want to hear change our email addresses.
Who else is experiences this problem?

I'm also now getting mail that I blocked years ago.. I had forgotten about most of these but suddenly, here's all this advertisement crap I'd gotten rid of years ago...
I blamed this on my outlook express at first, but I now realize it's a problem with homestead..
I hope we have answers soon.. Shouldn't someone at Homestead be working on this all weekend to find a fast solution?
I'm sure you are all like me and just don't have time to weed through all this crap to find actual customer emails...

New SPAM filter is terrible.
The new SPAM filter is allowing a large number of SPAM emails to be delivered to my inbox and the inbox of each person in my company. It has decreased productivity because of the time we all must now spend to carefully sort through our emails
Are you sure this is a SPAM *filter*? It seems more like a SPAM *enabler*.
I strongly recommend you return to your earlier SPAM filter until you confirm this new SPAM filter is working properly.
At least talk to the current SPAM filter company to see if they've been compromised. In my opinion, this gives Homestead a "black eye.".

Please get this fixed quickly, or I'll be taking my business elsewhere. I don't have time for your problems.
