Slowly but surely your SPAM might cease

I have never figured why anyone would want to pay for the crap to be downloaded, see the often offensive material and take the trouble to be their own spam filter.

Surely it is better to have gmail do it for you at their server?

728583 2008-12-15 02:17:00 I'm getting about 6 spam emails a day apparently from my own email address, most have similar subject "Your order status" etc. Never open any of these. Run Zone Alarm, AVG Free, Spybot & make frequent scans. Am I a zombie & any ideas how I can stop please ? All end up in the spam box.

My parents have the same problem, only they use xtra webmail (not outlook), so they can't get a filter.

There is supposed to be a spam filter for Xtra web-mail.

There is, and it stops most of the stuff, but not this. Even though you click on spam it keeps coming through.

728586 2008-12-16 10:16:00 You've been told the answer - gmail. You can't fix the xtra filter. If you can, tell xtra and they may hire you! linw (53)
