Problem With Web Site E-Mail

Hello,

If this is off topic, my apologies.  Please e-mail your response to me
instead of posting it.  Over the last several months I have been indundated
with junk e-mail addressed to me via my web-site.  A few of the pieces are
addressed to me as Webmaster.  99.9% of the rest are to my website e-mail
address name (mistresscaryl(at)hauntedhalloweencastle.com).  I did not check my
e-mail for _one_ day, and when I did there were 197 messages . . . and NONE
(please excuse the yelling) of them were for me personally.  All junk mail
selling stuff.  I have set my e-mail (Outlook Express) filters as closely as
I can, but it's nearly impossible to catch the bulk of the stuff.  As it is,
I'm afraid the filters are so big that they're slowing things down (I only
have a 333 mHz system).

So . . . are you seeing this same thing, and is there anything I can do to
better block the stuff?  In the months around Halloween I get a lot of
legitimate mail, and want to work it instead of actually shutting the mail
down.  This has me ready to pull my hair out.

Sincerely,

Caryl
