  Every since I’ve installed wordpress on my server, I’ve always received numerous spam emails everyday, almost 50-100 a day! It’s very frustrating. This only started when I started using WP so I’m quite sure that the spammers may have got my email from WP. Does anyone know how to get rid of the spams?

  Since you are self-hosted and using the software downloaded from wordpress.org, you need to direct your question to http://wordpress.org/support/ . WordPress.com uses a multi-user version of the software which is different and few, if any, here know anything about it.
