? OE, SPAM: Rules & Tools (Raw Messages - RegEx)

"Steve Cochran" schreef in bericht ... Watch this space: www.oehelp.com/OEX/ I'm working on adding spam filters to it that will include filtering on header information that OE does not currently provide. steve "Alec S." @ wrote in message ... Hi, I'm really getting sick of all the Spam. It's getting out of control and is evolving beyond OE's filtering abilities. I am looking for one or more programs that I can use to help reduce or eliminate it. First of all, I have no intention of using anything other than OE. I have invested far too much time and effort to build a proper infrastructure on it. I've got it configured and working and have created an effective backup and restore system for it. Plus, it's ease of use is desirable and it's storage method is the way I want. All I need is a tool to enhance OE's rules. I like the rule system that OE uses to filter Spam and sort messages, but it's a little too limited: 1) it only checks decoded messages, not raw message data (ie, it won't see anything in improperly formatted messages, HTML messages, etc.) 2) the rules do not support regular expressions These two are really! important for proper Spam filtering and OE falls short on both counts. Since Microsoft doesn't intend to update OE (and is in fact dropping it altogether), I'm looking for a tool to enhance OE's rules; an add-on/plugin preferably, something as unobtrusive as possible. It shouldn't insinuate itself too deeply into OE. I can't use something that creates or modifies folders, registry entries etc. I don't mind if it does a few little things like redirect server info as long as the changes are as small and few as possible. I've seen a few decent offerings which may or may not fit including plugins, proxy servers, and cleaners. K9, PopFile, SpamBully, and MailWasher all seem good, but none of them are quite what I'm looking for (again, I'm looking merely to enhance OE's rules to support regex and read messages' entire raw contents.) Does anyone know of anything that matches well with what I need? What is the closest thing? What about a combination of these types, will that work or cause conflicts? Does anyone have first-hand experience with a working Spam solution for OE? Thank you very much. -- Alec S. news/alec-synetech/cjb/net
