My Yahoo e-mail has been sold to a sex dating service and I keep getting e-mails that I have no desire in participating in. How do I filter out all this garbage?

Oh, that sounds bad.

If the junk mail filter is not removing them, you may need to create a custom filter. Yahoo has a help page here to get you started: https://help.yahoo.com/kb/SLN15994.html
