| 1307421 | 2012-10-18 04:14:00 | Hi. I persistently get spam from certain addresses and have had no luck using either the Junk Email or Rules settings in Outlook 2007. For some reason the spam still gets through even though the senders' addresses haven't changed. Contacting Microsoft technical support was useless. Anyone got any ideas on what I can do? Are there any free anti spam applications that I can download. I want something that will let me specify which email addresses I want to block. Thanks |

| 1307422 | 2012-10-18 05:24:00 | Mail Washer (http://www.mailwasher.net/) theres a free and a paid version.Used the paid one for years, works well, you can tell it what to let through and what to block. | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 1307423 | 2012-10-18 06:50:00 | Could you not just add the sender to your blocked senders list. | Bobh (5192) | ||
| 1307424 | 2012-10-18 09:06:00 | I just made a rule and it worked. That's what I did to one email address. When it comes thru, I made a rule to delete it | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 1307425 | 2012-10-18 20:01:00 | Tried that and it doesn't work :-( | Podmon (12416) | ||
| 1307426 | 2012-10-18 20:03:00 | I did that but it didn't work. Contacted Microsoft technical support and, bizarrely, was told that the rules don't always work (!). | Podmon (12416) | ||
| 1307427 | 2012-10-18 20:04:00 | Thanks Wainuitech - I'll give Mail Washer a go. | Podmon (12416) | ||
| 1307428 | 2012-10-19 06:53:00 | I have used Mail Washer for years. You make your own filters and friend/black lists. You can also preview the mail without downloading it and delete the spam on the server. I use it with 4 mail accounts, shows what mail is there and what server it is on. I do not use Spam assassin as "one man's spam is another man's required document". It is also a 'Kiwi' program. |
