From your header, your ISP is comcast. They use the Brightmail spam
filter, which is pretty good. Look in the FAQ under spam to find out how
to activate Brightmail. I found
<http://www.comcast.com/Support/Corp1/FAQ/FaqDetail_1560.html> but you
might have to dig a little deeper.
Consider using webmail,
<http://www.comcast.com/Support/Corp1/FAQ/FaqDetail_2251.html>, to select
obvious spam and delete it from the server before you download your email.

Your address is in the BCC: (Blind Carbon Copy

field of the spam.

Welcome. There's no need to post the spam, we all have our own copies.
