go to the Account Deletion page @ https://edit.yahoo.com/config/delete_user,it will ask you to sign in if you aren't already, and then confirm the deletion by entering your password and clicking yes. Remember that this deletes access to things that require you to have an account.

this is very hard since email address need not be related to the real name at all. anyone can create an email address with a different name or location and anything else. The only way would be to see if this is an official email that belongs to a corporation rather than a web based email that allows anyone to sign up

I just noticed this same problem and you have a limit on how many email addresses you can block.  Click the Options link on the top right hand corder and then choose Block Addresses.  You will see how many you are allowed to block.  You might want to remove all the blocked addresses and start fresh.

Do not open up the email, just click on it, and hit the delete button. That will put it in your deleted files..Go to the deleted files list, and delete it again..Or you can use the button, at the top of the page, that says delete..Good Luck..

You can't really stop spam.\n\nYou can get a better filter, but it may filter out some "good" messages (from family, friends, companies that need to send you information on warranties, recalls, rebates, etc.)\n\nThe best idea is to get a new email address, make it hard to guess (not the same as any other email account you see anywhere), be more careful who you give it to. Then open another email address to use when you register with various sites on the web, such as news sites, ESPN, etc., that you don't care if you ever hear from. maybe you can use your current email address as your secondary address, since it's already attracting spam.

Delete any email  not recognised by you.It may be a spam....! The spam may be due to many reasons…! Many hours are wasted due to spam email. However, by taking simple precautions while giving out your email and installing updated free software, you can prevent spam. More info available at\n http://fixit.in/stopspam.html

It means the spammers got your email address from some places.\nYou can try a few things.\n1.  Get a new email address and don't give it casually to anyone except for your good friends. Don't expose your email address when you post messages on public web sites.\n2. If you need to keep your current email address, you can try to use  spam killer. Yahoo, Gmail, or Hotmail have some kind of spam filter, but still there are lots of junk mail (including porn) that got through.  \n3. As to how to protect your own email address: for web site owners, please don't put your email address directly on your web site.  Try to use form mail instead (so that your friend or visitor can send messages on-line without know your email address.)\nIf you have to display your email in some way, try some tricks to avoid those auto email collectors which craw all the web sites to grab your email address for spamming. \ne.g.   If your email address is  king@kingsite.com,  show it like this  "king at  kingsite dot com" \n\nHope the above little tips ease your pain a bit.  :-)\nBy the way,  never buy from the junk mail ( otherwise, you support them and encourage more.)   If you spot the junk mail by its subject or sender's name/address, delete them directly without opening them.  Resist the temptation, let's fight the spammers together.

There is NOTHING you can do to prevent SPAMMERS from sending their CRAP,\nYou can only be diligent in setting up domain blocks and content filters that delete/move the incoming emails to the trashbin (or other preselected folder) upon arrival.

Consider doing these.\n\nUse this link to delete an existing yahoo email account:\nhttps://edit.yahoo.com/config/delete_user\nNote that this will completely delete your account and you will not be able to access the mails again.\nRead this to understand this completely:\nhttp://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mail/access/access-08.html\n\nTo create a new account, go to http://mail.yahoo.com/\nLook for \n\n"Don't have a Yahoo! ID?\nSigning up is easy.\n\nSign Up" \n\nClick on "Sign Up", and you will be aksed to provide information required for a new account, and new id and passwords. Fill that, and you are ready. Tell your friends about this new id, and DO NOT leave this new email address at web sites, do not use to forward mails to people you dont know. That is the best way to avoid getting spam mails.\n\nConsider creating an alias for your existing email id at\nhttp://edit.yahoo.com/config/list_alias?.src=ym\n\nGetting alias would not change anything for the acocunt, you will still get mails in the same account.\nyou can ask people to send you mails on the new id that you got, but if someone sends it on the old, that is not a problem either.

Forget the id, setup a new account even if you have to use a newly made email to do so. After you get set up just change your email address to the one you want.  Myspace will not be getting back to you anytime soon.  If you stop messing with the current one the other person will stop getting the emails. Another way to find out  is to email the person you think the emails are being set to. If the email comes back to you then its not a vaild account. If they do respond tell them what happened and ask them to plaese click the link in the email to cancel the account.

if you cant try this. Just click 'reply' (any mail) from here delete all the things like email ids, subject, body. And fill it with the address (that you need to send the actual mail) , subject and body.\nThats it. Hope this will help you.

First of all stop involving yourself in chain email.  Tell anyone not to include you in those.  Have you heard of chain email? Such as "In the next 6 minutes you must email 10 people you know" things like that. These are email that distribute to your friend's friend.  When someone have enough email address they could sell those to a third party and use however they like. With Luck you'll stop getting junk mail in two months, only after you report it Spam. Also another thing try not to include your email in one of those advertising, or Fill out a form to win a prize, etc... Give your email address with cautious and someone you trust that wont misuse your address.

first off get rid of the junk mail by removing your name off the list.  I did it because I had way too many catalogs coming to my house.  Try contacting you state-province recycling service to see if they have some sort of waste reducing program in which they will send you cards to fill out- each of the cards go to all the clearinghouses that have your contact info. filling those out and sending them in might help with those letters and all of the catalogs that you recieve in the mail.  As for email you could see who is coming from if it from yahoo there are instructions for reporting them abuse@yahoo.com but it's impossible even if you change your email you will eventually get them again. If its not yahoo and say for instance someone uses a Hotmail account they won't help you. You have to report them to the state/province

Never do an unsubscribe. It's only a confirmation for the sender you've read the (spam)mail and the more you will get spam. Unsubscribe is counter productive!

YES.\ni've gotten my account of 4 years erased... everything: email, answers, IM.... it was like a portion of my life had disappeared, because i had so much stuff in my email inbox and IM address lists that i could never access again.\nYahoo! acts as a big robot, thinking they have so many users that we won't care if one person's account is deleted for the slightest of reasons. but what about the indivisuals? what about the people's accounts that WERE erased?\nas far as i know, i didn't break any rules, nor did i close my account either (same as you). \nso why had my account suddenly been deleted?\ni got an email from Yahoo! saying that my account had been deleted for "security" reasons, and they didn't explain anything after that, which i don't get.\nwhat KIND of security reasons?\nwas i posing a threat to you, because i sure wasn't trying to!\nmy questions and answers were all harmless, pretty thought out, and took a long time to answer.\nand they deleted it all.\ni agree with you.

do this - but carefully\nonce you get the email, move it from your bulk folder to inbox.\nthen, open the email.\nnow you will be able to view the link that says "Report Spam" -or- "SPAM" -or- something...\nand just report it as spam.\n\n---x---\nThe other thing, see if the domain name of these originating email addresses is the same. if it is then block that domain from sending you any emails.\n\n--x--\nif nothing works then you are left with 2 options.\neither ignore the emails or create a new ID.

your SOL you can try to remove yourself from each email but I would suggest getting a spam blocker or getting a different email account.
