Hi - There is a good spam remover called Ella for Spam that I have used and it is about 96% accurate in getting the spam and not the good emails. It's client only - so won't help on a server. There are server-based anti-spam programs, but I have not used them and from my experience with server based email antivirus systems the anti-spam systems will require a certain amount of monitoring since they will quarantine good messages at times too.
For anyone interested, Ella is at: http://www.openfieldsoftware.com/ Just my 2 cents...

Just a few lines saying how good and cheap internet products are, followed by something that would appear to be an encrypted signature block, colored so as to be almost invisible. I used to see nonsense like this all the time on Usenet, though not so much anymore. But it might well not be nonsense. It might be a method for the bad guys to communicate and coordinate with each other. (You know, the bad guys who =don't= have access to secure government frequencies.) Bad guys who are too stupid, lazy or (worse) hurried to cover their tracks with a real advertising link. We might not be able to prevent this everywhere on the internet, but please, Bill, find a way to keep this stuff out of Vortex! -Walter
