[Shotimes] OT: spam

[Tony Fratzke]

Outlook 2002 at least uses a file names filters.txt that has keywords in
it to filter out crap.  You're right about using email addresses not
working because they always change.

Yeah, but either I am not setting them up properly or they just don't
work too well. Because the originating address is constantly changed,
Outlook doesn't always recognize it as junk. I always get something that
looks like it came from me (about mortgages)..I guess I could make a
mailbox that sent all emails with the word (penis, pills, rates,
mortgage, etc) to that mailbox and I could delete them after reviewing
them to ensure that they aren't valid emails...
