In replay to Dave Burkan's message:

I completely agree with you, Dave.

I am using SpamSieve, too, and it does a perfect job at seaking my 40+
spam messages per day, and none of them get to my InBox.
I wrote a review of SpamSieve, in case anybody wants some more info about
it, but it's in french only...
Here's the link:

I also reviewed another spam solution, called SpamFire, but it wasn't as
good as SpamSieve, in my oppinion...
Anyway you can read it here, also in french:
<http://www.cuk.ch/articles/tests/afftest.php3?aff=139>

The biggest difference between the two pieces of software is that you
have to teach SpamSieve how to recognize the spam messages, and Spamfire
works with predefinied filters.
In the end, SpamSieve can be much more powerfull because it learns how to
recognize the spam messages _you_ recieve, and can learn as the spammers
get new ideas... With SpamFire, you have to download new filters (paying
more to be registered on their update server) and the filters are made
for spam that everybody can recieve...

Anyway I guess that you can make your own choice between those two by
trying them... :-)
