Doesn't Verizon offer a Spam Filter with their service?
When I had it, they did - if I remember right.
I turned their antispam feature off, and receive only a little more spam
than when I was using it. It gives a poor false positive rate, and it
is inconsistent. Though they provide a white list, they ignore it as
often as they use it. I turned their spam detection off and I can't
really tell a lot of difference. At this point I delete the spam I get
rather than go to their slow web site to move false positive messages to
their inbox so Thunderbird can download the messages.
Go to Thunderbird's web site and see if there is an ad-on,
I thought I saw one there a year or so ago
I will go see whether there is another add-on for this purpose, but
since Thunderbird has Baysean junk detection, I don't think there will
be much else. In spite of being told the following is untrue, I remain
unconvinced. It appears to me that messages with the spam in an image
and innocuous text otherwise confuse Thunderbird's Baysean junk
detection data base. I know that Thunderbird is less effective in
detecting spam than it was before this type Spam began to appear.
I use Outlook Express - so I could be wrong
Outlook Express is far too unsafe to use. Get Thunderbird. It is a lot
safer. You will be glad you did. Uh -- except that there are some
quite-good, free spam detection programs that work well with Outlook
Express.
