I can go to pricelessware old and the alphabetical listing button/line is
right on the first page that comes up.

When I go to pricelessware new, I know there is such a listing because I
have seen it but I couldn't find it today. Perhaps it could be put in plain
sight for us dummies.

I have found Spamfighter was messing up my OE and I have deleted it. I was
looking for a replacement in 'old' but didn't find one. I couldn't find the
listings in 'new' so I bombed out.

Is there such an animal?

Have you tried Mailwasher - it can't mess up your email prog because it has
nothing to do with it, except you can call your OE from inside it.

It looks at your server, enables you to delete mail you don't want, and
fetch the rest. You can give it some simple rules to help premark mail for
deletion. You don't have to fetch any spam in for examination, which saves
loadsa time on a dialup.

I've tried lots, and MW always wins for me by a street.

A free version is on pricelessware

I thought I had. . . ;)

At http://www.pricelesswarehome.org clicking on "Pricelessware List 2005" takes you down the page to
the PL2005 Index (there's a complete site index on the first page) - you want the PL2005 "Program
Index".

http://www.pricelesswarehome.org/2005/PL2005ProgramIndex.php

That link is also shown on all PL2005 pages - in the navigation table at the top of each page.

Sort the Program Index page on the Category column or use the PL2005 Category Index page for this
kind of question (this link is also shown on all PL2005 pages) :

http://www.pricelesswarehome.org/2005/PL2005CategoryIndex.php

It shows an "INTERNET Email Spam Tool" subcategory - the link is:

http://www.pricelesswarehome.org/2005/PL2005INTERNET.php#EmailSpamTool

The "Email Spam Tool" subcategory link" is also shown at the top of the Internet page.

please note:

The ACF program pages are organized in the same way and they show all programs that have ever been
selected as Pricelessware (with links to PL2005 descriptions when appropriate) plus other apps that
have been mentioned in ACF.

http://www.pricelesswarehome.org/acf/P_ProgramIndex.php
http://www.pricelesswarehome.org/acf/P_ProgramIndex.php

The ACF link for spam tools is:

http://www.pricelesswarehome.org/acf/P_INTERNET.php#6.02EmailTool:Spam

You can also use the Google search boxes to find apps - you can search the whole site or just the
PL2005 directory, the ACF directory etc. etc. - the search boxes are shown on every web page. . .

IMHO the site is fairly well organized now - suggestions for improvement are *always* welcome.

I downloaded mailwasher but couldn't get it to recognize my email account.
I tried everything.

I just downloaded K9 and it recognized my account immediately so I'll try it
out for a few days.

When I went from dsl to rr, I went for several months with NO spam. All the
sudden, they have found me and I'll get 6 or 8 in a row, many from the same
sender but with a different "free" article.

How I think I got into this mess. I got a email from (I thought) HP
printers and I responded to it because by coincidence, I had been conversing
with HP about my printer software. It was for a free printer. Silly me, I
answered the inquirer's first page of 2 questions. Then the next page came
up with a lot of (nosey) questions and I thought "Oh Oh" and dumped out of
the thing without sending anything, I thought. Well something must have
gone out because the spam started that day and heavily.

Just make sure that your AV program does not monopolise the mail
connection or MailWasher will give up in disgust. I turn off Mail
Checking in AVG.

I must be lucky - I've never had a sniff of trouble with AVG, except
version 7 was too heavy for my second computer -(128 Ram), so I changed to
Antivir for that, and put it on my main box in sympathy.

I only use M/W on going on line to check out the last shedload of spam, and
then close it till next time.

It's a style that seems to suit M/W and me!

I use Antivir too and can see no way to disengage it from reading mail.
Anyway, I thought that was what it was for.

I have to let you into a small secret; I install a prog if someone I trust
says it's ok, and if it seems to work I never give it another thought.

So far (about 10 years internet use) it's worked a treat.

Where ignorance is bliss...... ;-)
