We handle all our mail in this way and stop SPAM / Viruses etc dead. Of course not everyone takes to this method but in our opinion it's the one feature of TB! that takes precedence over all the tweaks and settings < lol > BTW - what we do is decide which mails we *want* to download and simply dump the rest ... so I don't get a chance to enter a draw for a tropical holiday ... I can live with that :-) PS - this isn't to say the dispatcher is instead of anti-virus and Firewall, it's merely the first step and takes a bit of the load off the bandwidth too as you aren't transmitting data that you are only going to delete anyway. -- Best regards, Barry2 Using The Bat! v1.61 on Windows 98 4.10 Build 2222 ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
