RE: [APML] OT: more spam control

Bobby,

I bought McAfee Spam Killer and after getting tired of adding new rules in,
I gave up and uninstalled it.  I now use Norton AntiSpam that I bought
bundled with Norton Internet Security 2004.  I am very happy with it as it
catches at least 9 out of 10 spams, and more importantly, it very rarely
marks proper mail as being spam.  When you do get a spam that manages to
slip through, there is a "This is Spam" button on the Outlook bar that you
press, and Norton AntiSpam analyzes the spam message and processes it for a
few seconds to extract various patterns, and that's it.  And vice-versa,
when a proper message was erroneously marked as Spam, you have a "This is
Not Spam" button on the Outlook bar that you press and he never makes that
mistake again.

Hope it helps,

Serge

Here's a funny one for you:
I tried a new e-mail address in an attempt to reduce spam. I sent a test
message which never came back but got busy with other things and didn't get
back to a second test message until 5 days later. I sent the second test to
my new e-mail address and did not receive it either, so I tried logging in
to my server's web mail. There were the two test e-mails with 16 spam
messages sandwiched in between them. Looks like a waste of time there.

Anybody tried McAfee spam killer?
