Well, Scott, I'm glad to hear that. The problem with Spam is that I get a phishing email from "CitiBank" that I report to SpamCop. The next day I get an email that really appears to be from the same group of people for another bank. Two or three days later it is yet another bank. Then back to the first bank. They seem to throw in a few from PayPal for good measure. I've been reporting them thru SpamCop, and I do notice that they are changing their originating ISP. So maybe we are keeping them on the move, making them expend more resources than they would like. On the other hand, they seem, like the Borg, to be able to adapt to our defenses and attack once again. Interestingly, my Entourage '04 JMF in "High" security mode along with a very few added rules has caught virtually all the spam in the past month except for the phishing emails. The very few false positives have been added to the address book. As long as I make sure that my three little kids don't see the message subjects in my junk email folder, everything is fine! == -- B-r-u -c-e -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
