On your PC you set up a filter to either store ***SPAM*** messages in a folder, until you are confident that they don't mark good messages as spam. Later if you like you can filter ***SPAM***messages to be deleted directly. At work all SPAM is removed before we see it, so we have no way of knowing if we sometimes lose messages. Some ISPs seem a bit reluctant to publicise this option. I pay a euro a month extra for it. There's free software available that will do the same - try a google search on Popfile. It sorts into spam, probably spam, and genuine, based on the content of the email and the frequency of various words, you can re-classify anything that it categorises wrongly, and it learns from that and constantly improves its performance. I find it easier to let my ISP do the job. -- Martin |
