Most services that provide Internet or Web-based e-mail also offer free tools that will take out the trash for you (although if you're not careful, they will throw birth announcements out with the bath water). If you need something a little more discriminating, there is plenty of software you can buy that will help you filter your own mail. There's still no such thing as a 100% spam-free In box, but if you're willing...
