Hi Barry2, On Saturday, October 26, 2002, 11:38 PM, you put forth, in part, about "blocking IP address vs domain name.":
G>> management / mail dispatcher. You will then see you mail before it is G>> downloaded, and you can hand delete the offending files, while it is G>> on your ISP's server, before it reaches you. B> We handle all our mail in this way and stop SPAM / Viruses etc dead. B> Of course not everyone takes to this method but in our opinion it's B> the one feature of TB! that takes precedence over all the tweaks and B> settings < lol > I have been using this exclusively, and put the Ticker on hold. I just love this feature. Really a pleasure to handle your mail this way. It is almost like a mini IMAP. Using the global keys, one can go through a lot of mail in a very short period of time. (slicing and dicing) B> BTW - what we do is decide which mails we *want* to download and B> simply dump the rest ... so I don't get a chance to enter a draw for a B> tropical holiday ... I can live with that :-) Me too.. works great. B> PS - this isn't to say the dispatcher is instead of anti-virus and B> Firewall, it's merely the first step and takes a bit of the load off B> the bandwidth too as you aren't transmitting data that you are only B> going to delete anyway. Right ! -- Best regards, Gary Love your neighbor, but don't get caught. ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
