Not sure what email you use, but with Yahoo those types of email go directly into the spam folder. Also on yahoo, if you don't open it and declare it as spam, pretty soon it quits going into the inbox. I had stupid "you are such a good friend" from a friend of a friend - she got my address from something that Mary sent to both of us. Anyway, I didn't open them, moved them to the spam folder before deleting, and now they go directly to the spam folder. I'll bet it is dependant on your email provider.
