Recently, I have been getting a large number of Japanese emails to my primary email address. Where are they coming from? I get about 5-10 a day, and sometimes a lot more! And is there a way of blocking them? The characters are garbage on my screen, so I don't know where it's coming from.

Spamassasin shold do it.
New spam is not rejected by spamassasin.
You can create block list in Cpanel.
you should find something unique in a smap mail and put that in block list.
All mail with that phrase will be rejected.

I would block it, but with return addresses like this, all bad:

l®?µ?¬?¦B?e¤?l <n8sr0.igex9@hotmail.com>

H1111¤H¤O»?¦?H <pjcq8.bsj59@yahoo.com>

w°·±d±M®aw <uxxo2.lowle@hotmail.com>

O?S????¤???O <k0suv.87j1q@yahoo.com>

Ad nauseaum, it makes it rather tough to block.

And the junk characters are Japanese. My email inbox is full of this shit every day. How the Hell did these guys get my email address this quickly, thats the question.

Try this:
*n8sr0.igex9@hotmail.com*
or
*n8sr0.igex9@hotmail.com
or just
n8sr0.igex9@hotmail.com

I'm not sure and do not have an oprotunity to check so there are 3 of them.

Each email has a diffrent return address. I just went into CPanel and made a filter to block any email that has the line "This mail is probably spam". I may lose legit messages doing it this way, but them damn Chinese emails I'm getting are coming in with greater frequency now. It's litterally making my webmaster address totally useless.
