Spam Causing Chaos
Like many people who rely on their email to keep in contact with clients, family and friends I have had enough of all this spam. Some days are better than others I may get less than 500 but most days I have to wait to do any email work because of the 1500 or so junk emails trying to sell me Viagra and penis extensions.
Trawling the web there are many Spam filters starting to appear, all claiming to stop spam in its tracks. Check out the subcategory for spam filters for lots of links to the various spam killers. www.firstaidforcomputers.com/links.php?subcat=98
I have decided to test as many spam filter software as I can, publishing the results on First Aid for Computers.
I have decided to start testing Qurb available at www.qurb.com/land/atag/dradept-1
Very easy to install, adds a little three option button bar to Outlook. On the first day most of my incoming email was sent to the Qurb folder for checking. Selecting the folder showed a window with all the new emails. Marking any that are not spam was easy, just tick the box, once I had gone through then and clicked OK all the spam was marked as read and all the non-spam was placed back in my Inbox ready for reading.
So far it is a great spam filter doing the job, more details to appear soon.
