I *USED* to use mailwasher but I got tiered of batteling spam and sending all these bounced messages...in the end I ended up moving to Thunderbird, which does a suprisingly good job of flitering out junkmail... I don't say that to pursade anyone... but in my case it's been a life saver to filter out at my end w/ Thunderbird. :) (google: Mozilla Thunderbird) Francisco H Tapia wrote: > Spam and Email filtering is a serious and interesting topic, I'm > moving the thread to the dba-tech list where it can continue to grow :), > > > Thanks, > > > Joe Hecht wrote: > >> I have been using Mail Washer as a spam filter and successfully reduced >> my spam load. >> >> You download your e-mail into a new window.
