That's exactly how gMail works. Your reply is automatically from the address the message was sent to in the first place. Mail to different addresses can very easily be labeled as such automatically as they arrive, and it's just a single click to see all mail with a specific label. As for false positives, mentioned by Steve: I guess it just depends! I check my gMail spam folder every few days and I've never yet found a single item in there that I wanted to keep. And the delete button reads "Delete Forever" Lambert -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of jwcolby Sent: Saturday, August 11, 2007 8:12 PM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: Re: [AccessD] OT Friday: Comodo AntiSpam What really needs to happen is to make the clients like Outlook etc be able to SEND with a specific email address / account, based on the address being sent to. Default to main but allow setting a specific address to do the send if desired. You can receive from all email addresses / accounts but the send is all from the same address / account (the default). You should also be able to set up different instances of the email client such that one instance pulls email from this email address / account while another instance pulls from another account. I have a handful of email accounts, jwcolby@, admin@ etc. The way things are they all just pour into the same client and I have to rely on filters to route them to specific sub folders inside of the main folder. This concept of using gmail as a filter is certainly intriguing, but unfortunately all the spam comes in on my jwcolby address which I do not want to expose to eternal archiving. John W.

I act as webmaster for an organization I belong to;( gratuitous plug www.sdfwa.org ) I have all the email directed to the organization, not specificly to one of the accounts we have set up for officers sent to the webmaster account which is forwarded to my email account. Today some one started sending spam spoofing random names at sdfwa.org as the sender. I started getting all the bounces. I got something like 500 messages in a couple of hours. I just redirected the club email to one of my Gmail accounts and it filtered all the bogus messages as spam. I am impressed. This works way better than any of the spam blocking programs I have tried.

I get to see all my mail in one place, and Gmail's SPAM filter works a treat. If you need to you can also set up your mail client to retrieve your mail from your Gmail inbox via POP and have the best of both worlds.

Your email as well as every one else on the list that has popped up so far is now coming right through because I manually "allowed" you to. Either way, you respond or I allow, it only has to be done one time and then it works just fine. I have not had time yet to evaluate the full impact, but I am a small company, with a small number of regular correspondents (with the exception of this list). I can appreciate the "challenge / response sucks" mentality but I don't have a mail server under my control. I use the pop server that comes with my web site. This works at the client level and so I am trying it. My apologies for any inconvenience. John W.

Aside the good intentions behind doing so, this will cause a lot of trouble, and I don't say too much if I - as a general warning - mention that the consensus between system people is, that as tempting these challenge-response system my seem, they represent a bad idea because the negative impact outweighs the positive. If you or your client run a mail server, I can strongly recommend SpamBunker: http://www.aimconsulting.ch/Spambunker/sbk-strategy.asp which is not free but cheap, and is superior to the common mail filtering systems. Thus, it requires no "learning", no maintenance, it works from the minute it is installed, and it handles massive amount of spam and/or mail even on modest hardware. We operate it here where we went from about 4000 spam mails per day to a handful per week after we had been under a week long attack with constantly 20 connections and more than 16000 connections per day. As a result we now promote this to our clients with serious spam troubles. /gustav --- >>> <jwcolby at colbyconsulting.com> 10-08-2007 13:58 >>> Hi, it's jwcolby.
