Default Arghh!! Spammmmmmmmm

How bloody annoying is it!!!!

My personal inbox has finally been located and found by spammers, and I'm now being bombarded with emails... I've had 39 now in the last 10 mins, and over 200 today alone!

Time to find a very good spam utility. My server doesnt seem to be doing a very good job of filtering right now as it needs 5 emails from each sender to train. lol.

Any good free utilities recommended?

move to google mail, in 4 years i have hardly had any spam. it will even fetch your mail from a dediciated mail server or web mail.

I'll have a look into it mate. I currently run my mail on the mailserver of my own server, and collect them via IMAP in Outlook, and until now I've been absolutely spamless. Its a nightmare! lol.

I think I've kicked it into touch, using spamassassin, outlook filters and my internet security built in spam settings which I've now all trained... Not got one yet, and was getting 1-2 a min all afternoon so done something right.

I'll check google mail though.

WELL WORTH getting this email address removed from here: Vectra Supertouring No 500 Project

Spiders love attacking email addresses they find when crawling the web

Good call. Normally I'm very good and split my email up so it has to be manually typed to work. That however, was complete and like you say does not help!
