I Use spam inspector quite succesfully,and,decided to quarantine spam rather than delete it for one week!
when i looked in the quarantine folder,i was amazed how many spam emails related to fharm/drug sites what is wrong with these sad spam merchants,getting about twenty a day,lots of them exactly the same email but from a different address.all i can think of is there must be a lot of sad,twisted,mental nutcases out there end of rant btw,spam inspector is now back on delete  _________________ Remember,spyware always hurts,dont let it happen to you!!! |

Exact same email/spam messages with different addys are from affiliates of the company. They supply them with an already written ad for them to use to try to make money. _________________ CARMA |

thanx,madameX,thats what i suspected,therfore most of these scumbags are probably controled by one or 3 major scumbags still,spam inspector seems to keep this crap at bay,plus when the odd one or two rougues do get through,you can set a custom filter to sort that out aswell btw i was advised never to bounce spam email as this could backfire,is this true,or should i risk it and try,as i know that you NEVER,EVER,use there so called optout. _________________ Remember,spyware always hurts,dont let it happen to you!!! |

Opting out rarely works...replying only confirms your addy is valid. Ignoring and deleting is about the best thing to do. Using a program like you are helps too...and filters. _________________ CARMA |
