I use Spamihilator. It's free and catches probably 96% of my spam. Some rules in Outlook filter most of the rest to the Junk mail folder automatically where I review/delete as needed. Only 2-3 messages a day get to my actual inbox. John A. Jones, CISSP Americas Information Security Officer Jones Lang LaSalle, Inc.

Setup an account at Fusemail http://www.fusemail.com/ - ~$20/year Setup Fusemail to poll my old account at my primary ISP Setup a mail forwarding rule in Fusemail to forward all mail that is not spam to my new account Setup Outlook to only poll my new account at primary ISP 2200 less incoming emails over my network every week now Fusemail holds the 'spam' for whatever period you set it for - I used 7 days Fusemail also uses white lists. Any user who sends you an email will be asked to confirm that they are a real live person by responding to Fusemail the first time they send you an email. Message they get can be customised. Automated spammers, don't respond. I check unverified mail about once a day normally 10-20 items - mostly spam 2 weeks free trial _____ From: pctech-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:pctech-bounces@xxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jones, John (US) Sent: Friday June 30, 2006 14:06 To: PC Technical Discussion for iSeries Users Subject: [Bulk] [Bulk] Re: [PCTECH] Outlook 2003 (and later versions?) You can up the timeouts. I had to do this to give my anti-spam filter enough time to dump the hundreds of spams I get a day at home. Tools - Email accounts - View/change existing - (pick an account) - Change.. - More settings.. - Advanced tab and up the server timeout slider. John A.

Outlook 2003 seems to try to do multiple send/receive operations at the same time. This often results in time-outs for me and having to do the whole thing over to get everything. This may be related to using K9 to scan a couple of the accounts - I don't know. Does anyone know how to turn this behavior off - I'd much rather it behave the way that the 2000 version did and do one account at a time.
