My e-mail provider is VERY good at filtering out spam, etc. I haven't seen one of the Nigerian scams get through in years.
Suddenly, five of them have gotten through in the last week or so. So, here's my warning: Be very careful about opening e-mails from someone you don't know.
In my case, if I'm suspicious about an e-mail, I can put it in my spam box and open it there. That box will not open any attachments or embedded illlustrations, not even the 1x1 pixel kind that can be used for implanting viruses, trojans, and other malware.
