Living Room / Re: SPAM reaching epidemic proportions

Hello Carol,
I find "MailWasher Pro" the best of the MANY I've tried over the years. As my e-mail address appears in my publications plus several others (& on-line), I used to get over a thousand per week
... until I discovered "MailWasher Pro". Now I get ONLY what I want plus the 'occasional SPAM' which is added to my BLACK LIST only once.
BTW, MW clears 'unwanted' stuff BEFORE they are downloaded
I recommend the "Pro" version for almost 100% satisfaction (and regular free upgrades
)
"Warmest" regards from tropical Malaysia

Actually having gone back to Mailwasher (combined with FirstAlert and SpamCop) after a long break I am finding it very useful. The 'multiple cc to carol*' filter is quite effective against my ISP spam as it is usually addressed to at least 10 'carols' and so is easily identifiable. As I get legitimate mail to that address I'll move subscriptions to alternatives and then eventually I can just do a 'dump the lot' approach on that address.-Carol Haynes (June 14, 2006, 02:15 PM)
