I've found the Google site filters mail well but my SBC site doesn't and
hotmail is terrible.  Therefore, I liked Norton's security package so I just
began using their antispam program.

| Hi,
|
| Are you people discussing this issue in terms of not having an ISP with
its
| own spam filters at the mail server that you can adjust for sensitivity?
| Because both my last ISP and my present one provided this feature, and my
| current ISP manages to block zillions of spam emails every day although it
| lets through a handful, which doesn't upset me in the least when I go to
my
| spam-holding page online and see how many have been held back.  Just
| wondering.

| You can also slide the filter level on Norton's antispam program to
| eliminate even more spam but you'll get more wrong hits.

|| The spam filter that I've found most helpful in recent years is Norton's
|| Antispam program, which comes bundled with Norton Antivirus or Norton
|| Internet Security. Its fairly accessible. Though it doesn't catch all the
|| spam, it does catch 95% or so of it. Even if you find messages you want
to
|| identify as spam or ones you don't want identified as spam, you can use
| the
|| application key to bring up the usual context menu where there will be a
|| "Norton Antispam" submenu with choices such as this is spam, this is not
|| spam, empty the spam folder, and settings. As long as you keep the
|| definitions updated and browse the spam folder regularly to make sure
|| nothing legit is being identified as spam, this programs should serve you
|| well. I don't know how much it cost by itself, but as I said before, you
| can
|| get it bundled with the antivirus or internet security packages. pretty
| good
|| deal I'd say.

|| Hello all,
||
|| The number of spam messages that I get have increased exponentially
during
|| the past few days. Are there any reliable spam filters for Outlook
| Express?
|| If yes, are they sufficiently accessible?
||
|| Thanks,
|| Geetha
