Outlook without good spamfilter.

R

Rob

When is microsoft planning to make some better spamfilter into Ms Outlook ?

I can't find something working there.
Why I can't add regular expressions for spam blocking.
When I use message rules it also seems to apply to other emails.
It filters more out than I want.

In my opinion bassed on the information I now have it just looks like
that Microsoft doesn't do a good job because
it allready has a monopoly.

The more I work with it the more I hate this software.

Why is it that somethigns procmail on Linux can do can't be done with Ms
Outlook.
I loose much time with this mail program.

It is a real shame that a program used by milions of people is of that bad
quality.

------------

Litle bit of topic.
How do I reset an MSN password.
Why do they not send the password to the email adress when I have forgoten
it.
Every other service seems to do that.

I have a chicken egg problem with password changing on MSN.
It seems to me impossible to change.

I did not ask for this service but need it.

Outlook 2003 has a very good SPAM filter. No SPAM filter can be 100%, but
with Outlook 2003 I personally get less than 5% of the SPAM I used to (and I
used to get a lot).

Also, if you dont have the newest version of Outlook like
me, you can check out Spambayes @ www.spambayes.org. It
is a very simple and free Outlook plugin that boasts a 97%
sucess rate and learns from your actions what is spam and
what is ham. I use it and am sold by it!

I'm using SPAMBayes with Outlook 2002 and agree it is a
great tool to filter SPAM.

My question is is there anyway to not have the new mail
flag appear on the task bar when SPAMBayes has done
its "magic" and only show it when something hits my
Inbox? I was able to control the sound to only play using
Outlook Delayed rules, but still have the flag issue.
