So What? Not interested in YOUR 'puter stuff. Joe Garrett, R.P.T.

"spamarrest I just setup and used, to the fullest extent, Thunderbirds "Message Filtering" I know with Thunderbirds' filtering, you can delete from the "email" server (charter, yahoo, etc) - this saves on overall internet traffic - meaning you NEVER see it in the first place. Examples: - turning on view all headers and looking at the "originating IP address" or the IP address in the "received" line and filter by that - - - - This one alone cut about 85% of spam. - filter by words, phrases, etc - everywhere - subject, from, to, etc - - - - Overall, I've cut about 98% of all spam I can give these in more detail if anyone is interested.

Apparently it immediately sends a verification to the sender who needs to type in the code word and then they are allowed to send emails. You can pre-approve people/companies you want to let through. I just wonder if it is too much trouble for people to type in the code etc...?" David Ilvedson, RPT I have something similar through Earthlink.
