Re[2]: Again, why only TB built-in filters are enough to fight all sorts of SPAM

For some reason I was assuming it would be more complicated than it turned out to be. I guess that's because I usually read e-mail in the morning while drinking my first cups of coffee. It'll take my friends and others awhile to get used to using a particular address form, but I'll give it a try. MM This way you practically can filter everything using just Selective MM Download filters. In the beginning, I'll just filter those that don't pass to a junk folder I can check periodically.

Tell me, do you have some friends, or MM business partners who do not address you properly, namely not using your MM full name (or a screen/nick name defined by yourself) in TO (or CC) MM field, but using only the address of yours? I assume I'm like most folks: I have my friends and others in my address book and flagged so they go to the known folder; I have white-listed mailing lists like TBUDL; but I do receive mail that is not spam from others who are not in my book but whom I know or were referred to me by friends. My friends use all sorts of nicknames for me, including only the address; I can try to train them, but will have to deal with the third on a case-by-case basis. -- Rick Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

How do I send the rest to a junk folder? -- Thanks, Rick Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Tell me first do you as well have your address on some of web MM sites of yours, and if you do, in what form you have it exposed there? MM Namely, what exactly mailto:; code/form you use? No, I don't have it on any public web sites. I don't have any mail to code. I have three addresses, but most of the spam comes to only one of them. -- Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
