I'm getting about the same amount of spam per legit email. It's getting frickin ridiculous!

I'm looking forward to shutting this email account down and getting a new one in Emerald City.

I think I found a free blocker that was very easy to set up and based on what I read about it, it sounds like it will do the trick. You have to teach it a little bit for a month or so and then you should be good to go. I'll give you the name or just send it to you when I am ready to give it my seal of approval. Well hell, it's called InBoXCop Anti-Spam. I'll let you know how it works for me. The set up was a breeze though like I said. I can't wait to check my email tomorrow!

I'll go ahead and give this a thumbs up already. Here is what i can tell so far. It takes the list you have in contacts and allows all of those users to email you provided that when you set up the program, you selected all of the defaults. It then blocks a nationally known list of spammers and every other email you get. Out of about 12 emails so far, 2 have made it through to me that should not have. It has a great filtering system that if you actaully go in to use itcan allow you to set up about anything you want. For instance, you can set it to allow all emails form XXXXXXX@YourWork.com or all emails from Mom@HerISP.com etc. You still have to look at the spam you get every once in a while in order to teach it what you want and don't want. The download from CNET doesn't work. You have to go straight to their site to get it. It is free but only for one email account. I have two. One was spammed and one wasn't so I selected the one that was and it is now almost spam free. Set up was a breeze. Be patient on slower computers. It takes a few seconds between set up screens. I will send this to friends for sure! Here is where I got it:

Good luck and let me know what you think!

ah, spam, our 'favorite friend'.. I only check my email every few days, and every time I look, I always get hundreds of junk emails at my primary email account, while my other accounts would get none 99% of the time.

what I learned from this is to never use the email account you get when you sign up for the service as your primary email account. that account more than likely will be the one that gets most of the spam. create other secondary accounts from that primary 'spam' account and use one of those secondaries as your real primary account that you use.
