Hi

Can anyone recommend a spam filter for Outlook2003?
I have tried SpayBayes for a couple of year... but now want something
that works better!

(I need something that works on my PC -i.e. within Outlook)

The problems with SpamBayer are that:

a) it seem to filter legit stuff from real people
There is now way of saying "NEVER filter email from these people I have
written to."

b) I keep having to set up new mail accounts on my WindowsXP - and each
time I set a new Outlook account up it 'forgets' everything it has
learnt!

c) there is no help from OTHER users. i.e. the community of users
appears to be
unable to share what they all describe as spam. That is, I *personally*
have to
train it each time I set up an new Outlook account... :-(

d) it is now very out of date - no new release for many months...

Surely there is something better out there.

Yes I suppose I am prepared to pay - but no very much. Say GBP10.00
once off.

With thanks

Cloudmark is my favorite. Integrates directly into Outlook. Allows you to
manually identify an item as spam for their list. Allows you to UNblock items
that fall into your spam folder. Does an excellent job overall. I have used
it for 2-3 years. Purchased it for my home computer too after having it at
the office. Does require annual renewal (renewal runs USD $19.95)

Okay but how many and which others have you tried?
Why do you recommend them...
And (save me a little time) roughly what do they cost to own/run?

I've used spamPal for about a year. I tried several others, but spamPal was
the most comprehensive. And, it's free.

No need to try others when the one I have works.
Then again, I never use Outlook and wouldn't if you paid me to.

Cos it works and you asked.

Well I have tried others... and all were imperfect in one way or another,
but all were better than nothing. But Mailwasher stands out from the crowd
for me.

lol.

Yeah it works. It's slightly different in approach to many others, but that
is it's greatest strength - you filter your email long before it ever
reaches your PC. You don't need to worry if your preferred AV software can
handle the latest email virus... the email will never make it to your PC.

free and paid versions


I used the free version for a couple of years but I depend on it so much and
get so much use out of it, I now have the paid version. I think it is only
£20 or thereabouts.

Additionally, you can link it into SpamCop if you want to be more proactive
about tackling spammers.

Problem - I have 4 different email accounts and the free version
only lets me use one!

Never mind. Shame - it did look quite promsing - I think I used
mailwasher
about 6 years ago...
