I also read recently (and now can't find) info a a new spam filter package
for Entourage that works very well. Did anyone else see it? Can you remember
what the hell it was??
Over the past 3 weeks my spam from Rogers has risen to 20 -30 or so per day
and I haven't signed up for anything new. I also have decided that
turnaround is fair play so now I simply send back all my spam to Rogers
support (cssite@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) and tell them it's time they did something
about it! Try that with Sympatico, AOL etc... if we all start clogging the
mail servers with returned SPAM, then maybe they will finally do something.
>> The sympatico server is clogged with spam and I've had great
>> difficulties sending email especially, so if you post a message to
>> the list and I don't get back to you right away, that may be why.

> Hi, since AOHell doesn't actually provide a SMTP server to send mail I had

> address. Thus, each time you log-on/off you have to restart the Sendmail app
> (on ADSL or cable your IP addy wiill change less frequently or not at all so
> you'll have to restart it less often/never).
