 |
|
How many of you using Windows have a spam blocker on your emails. How many of you recommend what you use. Anyone with a good one can they post please. I use CoffeeCup Spamblocker which is good but I have been told it is now passed its day and no longer supported. I need to find something else

My problem is due to the fact we run a couple of websites with email addresses we get EVERY nutter, spammer, junk mail operator in the world zapping our e-dress. They then sell it on to the spam masters who send out **** by the bucket load. Our inbox can contain between 100-120 spam a DAY and that is a lot of SPAM   . The old system would bounce back the spam with an error message to the originator ten times. Did you know that 90% of the worlds spam is sent by less than 100 people.

I'd look at moving to a hosting service that provides spam blocking as part of the package I've used www.virtualnames.co.uk for 8 years now and even their cheapest hosting (£20 per year) includes spam filtering / blocking / tagging. We had one domain that was getting in excess of 400 spam a day and we moved them to virtualnames, switched on the spam blocking and it has been about 1 a day getting through since then and they aren't aware of any reports of false blockings.
