Most likely the reason you got those is that you are posting things on
groups and using your real email address. The automatic spam harvesters go
thru and pick up the email address and then spam you to death. Use something
like what I changed your email address below on here to:
artianmagi@NOSPAMhotmail.com Then the machines will not find you, but a
person could see what they need to remove to send you a email.
