    1. Re: [GEN-COMP-TIPS] spam filter

    3. Hello List I only joined your list a few days ago. I didn’t actually think I would ever contribute. I have been using Spamfighter for about 2 months now, I find it great, they have a free version and also you can upgrade to the subscribers version. Once you sign up you are able to use the subscribers version free for 30 days, then you choose to either subscribe or go back to their free version, I was so impressed that I subscribed. My understanding of how it works is it wont stop you receiving spam, but if their system recognises that the email is spam, it will automatically put the email into their Spamfighter folder for you to delete. If they don’t recognise the email as spam you are able to "block" / send it to them so when all others who use Spamfighter receive that email it will be acknowledged. I have pressed the "block' button many times, but I have also received many email in my Spamfighter folder. I feel more secure using these lists now, I do receive about 20 a day thru to my desktop & probably another 20 that are picked up by my ISP. http://www.spamfighter.com Cheers Melissa CHAPMAN - Leicester Eng, CHILDS - Hampshire Eng & Australia, COLE - Kent/Sussex Eng & Australia, DUNK - Sussex Eng & Australia, GANNON - Roscommon Ireland & Australia, HOGARTH - Australia only, HOUGAARD - Denmark, HOOK - Huntingdon & Kent Eng & Australia, LANGTON - Leicester Eng & Australia, MONKTON/MONCKTON- Kent Eng & Australia, REILLY-Antrim Nthn Ireland & Australia, SKINNER - Kent Eng & Australia, TEGG - Surrey & London Eng & Australia -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of DJohnson Sent: Thursday, 4 January 2007 7:52 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [GEN-COMP-TIPS] GEN-COMP-TIPS From: "K Jones" <[email protected]> >> The most we can hope for is an email filter that keeps up with the spammers.<< Hi Can someone recommend a free or inexpensive email filter please?
