Spam blocking options and opinions
Just wanted some opinions of good spam software to use with Outlook Express. My mom gets both her work and personal emails on her home PC. Even after deleting over 50 emails this morning, when she logged on this evening she had almost 200 to sift through.
Just wanted some opinions of good spam software to use with Outlook Express. My mom gets both her work and personal emails on her home PC. Even after deleting over 50 emails this morning, when she logged on this evening she had almost 200 to sift through. Some are legitimate emails but most are blind mailings. Short of changing her email address (my suggestion) and because that doesn't really solve the problem (eventually it will probably put her in the same situation), I suggested a spam blocker but since I use web-based Hotmail, I don't really have any experience with Outlook/Outlook Express. Any feelings/opinions/recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

What email service does she use?
I use gmail and I receive tons of spam but it all goes in the spam folder. I barely ever get any spam in my Inbox. I don't even worry about hiding this email address either.
For my work email we use Microsoft Frontbridge which does a fairly decent job but it still let's in those botnet .gif/stock emails. (I have to block those ip's manually).
