I need a good spam blocker

Seeing as I've received 126 e-mails since 8am this morning, it's about time I kicked butt and sorted it out so..........which is the best??

 

For a business or for your home?

If business - then definitely Message Labs.

If home, then any really is good enough.

 

you should stop going on these naughty web sites and giving them ur email addy to enter!!!

 

LOL

as if! 2 hundred and chuffing 84 e-mails in one day. Popular, huh! Chuffing spam. </p>

Any other recommendations for spam blocks?</p>

 

RE: LOL

which email addy have they hit, is it the bbs one, which may have been hijacked.

 

RE: LOL

Initially, I thought that, but it's my other one that seems to be inundated at the mo.

 

RE: LOL

I used to use mailwasher, not bad but costs money, not a lot

I have norton 360, which does a decent job, so does my ISP (virgin, which takes out a lot as well

 

RE: LOL

Hmm, used Mailwasher in the past, might have to revert back to it. Thanks love.

 

Have a look at these, should be something here that will do the trick

Spamfighter.com

all my spam gets filtered straight into there. I agree it doesn't stop them entering my email system but it sends them straight to the spamfighter file. there they are deleted and only emails I want to see are read. Works for me until I find something better. (jadore)

 

is free for private users, and I agree is the best one.

Near 100% accurate, collecting around 700 emails a day on our work server.

Cannot think of an instance where it has incorrectly dumped real mail in the spam folder, and only a couple a day slip through into my inbox.

 

Thanks - will give that one a whirl nt

 

is your email address published on any website?

have you put it in posts on here?

If so there is your reason you get so much **** - your advertising your email.

Best thing would be to bin that email addy, get a new un and start a fresh - without advertising it if you have done.

The other reason is probably hate mail cos of that horrid avatar - god its ugly.

 

RE: is your email address published on any website?

I don't recall putting it in posts on here so it must be to do with my avatar - time for a new one me thinks

 

Get Mozilla Thunderbird.

It is to Firefox as Outlook Express is to Internet Explorer.

Has spam filtering built in. If one lands in your inbox, right click it and one of the menu options is Mark As Junk. It moves it to your junk folder and learns to spot spam. After a fortnight the SPAM filter had learned to spot pretty much everything. I've used it for 6 months now and it hasn't missed a trick spam-wise for the last 5
