Spamming bots crawl the mail ids that you had been using for logging into some site. Its better not to use your official mail id for all these casual logins. Make a different mail id for this. for future, unsubscribe from these mail senders. AT&T has to do nothing with it. They have no authority to check all your mails. your firewall might obstruct malwares if any in such mails. but if the content is safe, it is delivered to you for sure.
