Where Did the Sapm Go
Prior to downloading Vista SP1 and the prior updates, I was getting 50-100 junk mail
items a day. Since the download I've been getting one or two. Not that I mind losing the spam but there was occassionally a legitimate item tossed into the junk file. Now I'm only getitng a few a day showing up in the junk file. Was there something in the updates that has finally killed spam? Does anyone know? |

Doesn't all that spam floating in air and unattached to any a hardware or network cause problems when driving your car as it would block your view? Geez, talk about being super vague. Yeah, like we are going to guess as to who is your e-mail provider (which may NOT be what you claim in your From header). If AOL is your e-mail provider, I found their spam filtering very unreliable in that it had an unacceptable level of false positives, so I disabled their server-side spam filtering and just relied on my client-side anti-spam solution. You really think spam is spewed at a constant volume? You never bothered to mention over what period you measured the change. It's ridiculous to make claims about spam reduction worldwide based on your egotistic wants regarding a single e-mail account.
