Spam filter / killing at server level
 

Anyone know of any programs that will kill spam before it even hits my inbox? Something that sits at the server level and just deletes it as it reaches the box. It doesnt need to be 100% foolproof, just enough to kill the vast majority of the 500 pieces of shit mail I have to dig through every day.

Thats right, take food out of my kids mouths. thank you.

hehe

Then that one important email (like the invitation to GFY Christmas party) might get deleted instead of delivered. Spam sucks but there is not a total fool proof way to block it.

If I can get something to just filter out everything over 25k in size, and kill everything that contains the words pussy, special offer, offshore, and anything with a URL in it, I just eliminated 75% of my spam.

Tried it, cant get the fucker to install.

Go join spamcop.net give'em $15.00 or $20.00 for the paid version. And sign up for a yahoo email address put it on all your pages, what I had 2 do, then it took me 2 years too get the spam down 2 around 10 to 15 per day. of course my yahoo 1 get's 100's per day.... like 400.

You will thank me 100 times over (ok, at least once) for pointing you to this:

It has thousands of filters built in, you can customize more, and you can add "friends," so mail from people you know gets through no matter what.

Simply stated, it kicks ass.

Mailwasher.net

you can even bouce the spam back

i set up my rules in outlook to send anything with the words free and offer to my deleted folder and it takes care of a great majority of my spam.

Don't forget about life insurance, penis enlargement and new mortgages?

Ive never tried it, was just fixing that guys link, < / a > tag was fucking up the link.

Theres gotta be something that will work though.

Well god damn, I found the warez version in alt.binaries.nl and straight out of the gate, caught at least 90% of the shit in all my pop accounts. A little tweaking and it should get nearly all of it. Titts. Thanks man.

I told ya... it kicks ass (it's WELL worth actually paying for). Just wait until you get some custom filters set up to handle the more common virus emails, creative spam, etc.

You can also bounce the spams if you want. I did that for a while, but it didn't seem to reduce the amount I was getting, so I just delete them now.

Between SpamKiller and my Popup Blocker, I'm a much happier internet user than I used to be :thumbsup
