Hi, Lim-   If you have no tech support people, you probably should outsource spam control. It's pretty much hands-on to do it right.   Having said that, there are some gateway products, and Declude interfaces directly into IMail. Declude has gotten pretty expensive for new users, though.   -Dave Doherty  Skywaves, Inc.   ----- Original Message ----- From: Lim Siew Yin To: Imail_Forum@list.ipswitch.com Sent: Sunday, February 12, 2006 10:14 PM Subject: [10] [IMail Forum] Newbie needs help on SPAM Hi ppl,   We're still using IMAIL 7.5 and I need help in getting an affordable yet reliable SPAM filter... (I hope there is such a thing). Since we have 0 Tech support personnel.... I am hoping for a user-friendly solution. I know IMAIL has some sort of built-in SPAM filter... but that works by manually maintaining a filter LIST .. is that so? (I am guessing here)   Again... we have 0 Tech support ppl.... so noone is gonna maintain the list... which is why I am hoping there is a solution where by it retrieves/updates the filter list automatically.. something like an anti-virus program.  Is this how SPAM filters works?   Or does it always need a tech guy/gal to maintain it?   We are a small company... we dont have a lot of emails (less than 1000 emails per day - 70% of them SPAM...)   Sorry if my question is too noob... I don't have much tech resources to turn to.  Any help/info is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.     Lim.
