What is the best way to treat 'spam' or unsolicited emails?

You can choose to use the spam filter in your email. In yahoo, place a check mark in the box corresponding to the message you'd like to report as spam then click the SPAM button on the top menu bar next to the FORWARD button. The steps are similar to move a message to your spam folder in gmail except you click the icon on the menu bar that's the shape of a folder, the list will expand and you can select spam. Another option is to block the sender or domain. Also you can click the link to unsubscribe but I would only do that if you know that it's not a virus/malware infected message. Be sure that it isn't something you've subscribed to because in that case, you will continue to receive the messages. Almost every email program as well as online email provider has spam options. Usually when you mark a message as spam, your email program will then start to recognize the format of those messages and will mark them as spam in the future for you. Those are just some of the options available.
