I recently upgraded to netscape 7.1 from 4.79. I too have cable modem, and use netscape as my mail server. 7.1 has a good spam filter that "learns" what is span (anything with viagara, d*ck, mortgage, etc goes automatically into my junk folder. I'd highly recommend upgrading to 7.1 it was seamless. larry

Now my next hope is that some here would have a suggestion on Spam Management. ... I'm currently getting over 100 unwanted and unsolicited messages per day. I am in the same league. Currently I rely on the filtering capabilities of Webmail providers, Yahoo! mail.yahoo.com GMX gmx.de FreeMail freemail.de They all do a decent job. You can also use an email account by a company specialized on spam fighting, SpamCop ($30/year): mail.spamcop.net You can either continue to use your old address or switch to a new one. For posting on Usenet or other very public places I like SpamGourmet. This free service offers self-disposable email addresses. spamgourmet.com
