WSA will not stop Spam emails as Spam is out of control just look at Google: https://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b&ei=aX8_XO6CNqvgjwTvwqKIAw&q=Spam+Emails+with+Virus&oq=Spam+Emails+with+Virus&gs_l=psy-ab.3..0i22i30l4.20173.24082..24457...0.0..0.117.967.9j2......0....1..gws-wiz.......0i71j0j0i67.ciHDcudtxm8

The best thing to do is if you don't know the sender just delete them!

My email (ATT/Yahoo) has a brief on all incoming email content. I give it a quick view (since a few spam get through) to determine validity, then send to trash. And, I NEVER OPEN any email in either folder unless I've checked it...and I have also not been hacked or diseased since I got WEBROOT. So, just don't get curious about what don't matter no how.
