</>i am personally willing to stick with my contention that deleting unopened mail is preferable to deleting opened mail</I/ Mark Agreed,my thoughts on Spam. I usually receive 30-40 emails a day and it takes me less than a minute to delete all spam. I have a shortcut to my mail in startup and it's set to display the inbox with From/Subject/Time Received options. I do a quick scan and right click and delete all messages I know to be spam. I then close the mail program as it saves 4% resource usage. I will check perhaps 2-3 times more during my daily computer time and repeat the procedure. The way I perceive spam is that it can't be stopped so I deal with it in the most expeditious manner I know of and move on. I will not let spam be an irritant. Excuse the "Dennis Miller rant". :) Ed
