RE: Spam Control..

I use a program called Mailwasher Pro. It's an application that gives you a preview of the mail on your server and lets you delete it without downloading it to your computer. You can also bounce the mail back to the person that sent it to you. In theory, this gets your address off that particular list sending the message your email is not a valid address. It has the filter function and also connects to spam databases to automatically mark emails that are included in those databases.

I can't give it a full thumbs up because I check multiple mail accounts and I can only bounce from the ISP I'm connected to and I don't get a lot of spam in that account. However, I really like being able to preview mail without downloading it and I think it is extra protection from email viruses.

I still get loads of spam from one email address but since I don't bounce from that ISP, I'm not sure if that feature works well or not.
