0, I delete them.
When you were young and your heart was an open book, you used to say "live and let live."
But if this ever changing world, in which we live in, makes you give in and cry, say "live and let die."

I haven't really kept count. A rough guess would be 300/month and that's 300/month too many.

Me too. My school account was spam free until this (my senior year). Maybe I get 1 every other day. Life is good Spam free.
