Hi Mick,

I can sympathize with you on the amount of spam. Because my e-mail address
is all over my web site, I get more than 500 junk messages a day.

I have been using a program called Spam Sleuth by Blue Squirrel software.
Once I worked with it for two weeks, it effectively removes 99% of all the
junk messages from my server. There are several filters available with the
program, and you assign points to each thing. For example I add 500 points
for each instance of profanity, 20 points for the word "free" and 800 points
for URLs that are known to belong to spammers. You can also add any number
of points to messages that are not addressed to your specific address.

You can add the e-mail addresses of all your friends and mailing lists so
you always get mail from them.

I wrote a detailed review on an earlier version of Spam Sleuth at

Hello

Dunno how the rest of the list is coping but I'm at crisis point with Spam.
Some of it is so huge (in file size and quantity) that's it's blockin my
inbox and I'm spending hours clearing it.

Most of the mails are sent to my mydomainname.com with random prefix ... for
example [log in to unmask]  ... and there's 1000's of em daily!!

What I'd like to do is to 'find' a proggie that will log on to the server
(at intervals set by me). Delete all the emails that don't look like this to
address [log in to unmask] as they make up the biggest percentage of spam

I can't find an anti-spam proggie that will do this

Can anyone help please?

TIA ... Mick
