Leef, I agree with Dian...mailwasher is great. I personally like the ability to control spam from within Outlook. Here's some other links you may want to check out: http://www.cloudmark.com (free) http://www.mailfrontier.com I hate spam http://www.sunbelt-software.com Regards, Ramey Bell Editor OutlookTips.com http://www.outlooktips.com Free Weekly Outlook Tips Newsletter.=20 -----Original Message----- From: mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mso-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Dian Chapman Sent: Monday, October 07, 2002 1:48 PM To: mso@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [mso] Re: Outlook 2002 and junk filters You might want to checkout www.mailwasher.net. It's what I use. It allows you to bounce spam back and eventually they begin to think you don't exist and you can lower the spam level. It allows you to remove them from the server, before anything is downloaded. I love it!

I have never used filters in Outlook before, but have started adding email to the "junk senders" list. Is there a better way for me to optimize my use of this function? Changing my email is not an option due to my business. ANY advice would be most appreciated.
