Default *** How to Filter out the Crap! *** 003 - Filtering with Outlook Express

At the risk of being flamed I am going to offer this observation.

I did not want to have to install additional software to be able to filter
and control the current spam that is on the wreck. After a little
experimenting with Outlook Express's limited filtering capabilities, I
discovered that it was capable of filtering ALL of the current spam that is
on the wreck. All you have to do is to set up Outlook Express's filter to
filter on certain words that appear in the subject.


And what do you do when the spammers change to a new objectionable word in the
subject?

I'm glad that what you're doing is working for you... but Nfilter is free,
easy to install, and does a near-perfect job of eliminating the trash. Don't
knock it if you haven't tried it.
