| 239898 | 2004-05-28 04:04:00 | Last time I changed my E-mail address because of junk mail, the person on the help desk said "when you forward a email remove all the visible email address, because when a joke is passed on & on & on & ........" if anybody done the chain is in to spam they can get heaps of valid email address to be burnt on to new "spam CDROM" One of my friends sorry ex-friend (for different reason) kept my Email address on the To: field instead of the Bcc: entry, and guess what?? now I get junk Email. However this not too much a problem with clear.net as all the spam mail goes straight into a "spam" folder, so on a normal download you would not see it, until you log on to Clear web site and go to the spam folder. all Clear has to do now is a Auto delete on the spam folder each day, I'm just leaveing the mail there until Clear see fit to try my idea. |

| 239899 | 2004-05-28 05:21:00 | Yep. Gave up trying to educate people to forward to people via the BCC field. Problem in Outlook 2K it's not a default field but hidden. | paulw (1826) | ||
| 239900 | 2004-05-28 05:25:00 | You have to tell people a minimum of 50 times, if they still persist then its legal to kill them. True story. |

And if other posts are redundant then isn't you making a post to comment on it redundant as well? Or are you merely posting to increase your post count? Hell, I know I am, Come judgment day this is exactly the sort of thing St.Peter will be looking at. Post counts will finally matter. |

| 239907 | 2004-05-28 13:09:00 | I agree with Baldy regarding Mailwasher ... it's the best spam busting tool I've found so far. It makes deleting junk mail a real no-brainer for almost all spam mail. | Rod J (451) | ||
