Lately, both the wife and I have been buried in spam. I have been
forwarding them to ***@security.rr.com but they still keep coming from
the same people. I have been including the 'header" see below too. Am I
sending them to the right place?
Thanks,
J.

Hi,

Maybe not the answer you're looking for, but, I'm having
great results with POPfile http://popfile.sourceforge.net/
as a spam filter.

I've had this ***@cts.com email address since 1986 (dang
has it REALLY been 19 years!?) and I've never made any
attempt to obfuscate it. Perhaps not surprisingly, I
receive 200 to 300 spam emails a day. But with POPfile,
I see about 1 or 2 a day. It takes a short while to train
POPfile what's spam and what's not - but the process is no
more complicated than forwarding to spamblock; and the
results are immediate and effective. :)

Well anyway, it's working well for me... I suppose "Your
Mileage May Vary"... But - for what it's worth.


Regards,

Bill
