How can I stop receiving emails I never requested, nor want. They never include an "opt out" or Unsubscribe.
portions of the junk emails. I receive over 100 of these emails daily and I am tired of it. I attempted to reply and inform this people to remove me from their mailing listing, but a majority of the time I am informed by Yahoo.com these replies were unable to be delievered because of a variety of reasons, such as invalid email address.

Well don't put your e-mail address down when you fill out forms, that is how they get it. Also make sure you set up your spam blocker to delete e-mails that come thru with certain keywords.
NEVER REPLY TO THESE EMAILS. Don't even go to the links that say "unsubscribe." That just lets the spammers know that someone is at the other end of that address. In fact, don't open them at all. Some of them contain elements that can report to the sender if the email was opened. The best thing you can do is just delete them. Eventually, it may decrease the number you get, but it may take a while. The emails will never completely stop, and there's really nothing else you can do.
If they are showing up in your inbox, you need to turn your spamguard on (from bulk folder-spam guard, what's this?), then you can set the time your emails stay in your bulk folder (I delete mine immediately), if they still show up in your inbox, mark as spam, and the sender's email address will be blocked
