| 230934 | 2004-04-21 08:34:00 | Hi all - suddenly in the last week I am getting a huge increase in the number of spam coming in (mostly wanting to sell me viagra, and other prescriptions). I have IHateSpam on my machine, but they still come. Any suggestions, other than to change my email address (don't really want to do that)? :( R.M. |

| 230935 | 2004-04-21 08:57:00 | ask clear to turn on their spam filter on your email address | Megaman (344) | ||
| 230936 | 2004-04-21 08:57:00 | Have you got clears anti spam filter turned on. | gerrypics (323) | ||

| 230938 | 2004-04-21 09:09:00 | Thanks for such prompt replies! Now for a dumb question (!) - do I email ClearNet to do this. Sorry, but I thought this was happening automatically..... By the way, I have a Home 150 account. Cheers, and thanks again in anticipation. ?:| R.M. |

| 230939 | 2004-04-21 09:21:00 | email, ring, either should do. the spam and virus filters are free for home 150 and flatrate. other plans cost $5 each |

| 230940 | 2004-04-22 01:03:00 | Am also on the same plan with Clearnet. For whatever reason all this spam is getting past the filters at the ISP. | alanw (5553) | ||
| 230941 | 2004-04-22 03:38:00 | My experience over the last couple of months is that about half the spam is picked up by ClearNet's filter program, and Mailwasher picks up the rest. | rodb (1561) | ||
| 230942 | 2004-04-22 06:21:00 | Are you using Mailwasher Free, or Mailwasher Pro? | R.M. (561) | ||
| 230943 | 2004-04-23 11:32:00 | Sorry about the delay in responding. I use Mailwasher 1.33 (free). I went back to this after trying later versions because they would not check more than one POP account, whereas 1.33 and earlier let you have multiple email accounts. |
