Junk Snail Male makes my blood boil. Can't stand that crap
I take business reply envelopes fill them with shredded paper and send them back. They have to pay for the postage.

Don't forget that people can text you via email. Most of the major carriers, maybe all, provide {your phone number}@someaddress.com as a gateway. Anonymous email through a hijacked server and voila, untraceable spam to your phone.
I believe, however, that the same carriers also offer options to disable that email gateway feature, so that you can only be directly texted from another phone. That very much limits your spammability as that's much riskier for a spammer to attempt.
I have Sprint. This mission would take about 2 hours (on hold mostly) and 17 emails to resolve. I think you can set your phone to receive absolutely no text messages. Personally, I've become a tm junky. You can have your google calendar (and many others) send you reminders as short text messages before appointments (you choose how far ahead). In addition, I have vonage transcribe all of my voicemails into tm's. I pay into an unlimited plan ($15/including internet access) and it works out pretty well.
I just bumped the pet peeve thread with my disdain for spam faxes. They use up paper and printer ink. I've gone to an electronic fax service and now they are just email spam which is better (less waste). It does no good at all to call the fax spammers. I think you just verify your fax number when you do.
So even though I like my text messages, I can fully sympathize with text messages for which you pay but can't stop.
