I hate flogging products on the net, but here is something that I've been using for a long time now. I got into it during their beta testing phase, and now they have gone into production mode for a few months. Check the webpage; the monthly cost is about $4 US. This product works so fantastically well (with Outlook as the mail client) that it's the only thing I've ever signed up to pay on the internet. I can't imagine being without it now. http://www.cloudmark.com/spamnetsig/ I strongly urge that everyone using Outlook 2000/2002/XP should sign up. My self-interest: to see more subscribers so they make a profit and therefore keep this invaluable service running. Seems they are offering bulk discounts too - presumably for Corporate licences etc.
