Hi H4,
In general it does you more harm to request to be removed from a "bogus" email list. The administrators of these types of farms look for this activity as it tells them that they don't have to purge your name because it "is alive". One of the better methods you can use would be to stop responding as a first step then.....
Check with your ISP about what they offer in the way of SPAM control. Many offer this a part of the service now at no extra cost.
Obtain some spam blocking software like Deersoft SpamAssassin or SpamCop
Clearswift, NetIQ, McAfee SpamKiller 4.0, , GFI, and SurfControl
I am not sure if you use a Microsoft email client like Outlook if you DON'T and happen to use Eudora try....
Spamnix for Eudora
Blacklists
These are basic DNS server blacklists. DNS lookups are reviewed against the "blacklist" DNS and IP. If these match.....You get bothered less. Here are a few blacklists:
dsn.rfc-ignorant.org
sbl.spamhaus.org
list.dsbl.org
bl.spamcop.net
Last but not least........

This is another very handy tool that works. Best price ever!
Best of luck to you!
