i asked a question about a spam blocker and niall litchfield posted one. for
some reason i cant get it to install properly on my system.
Im up to 300 spam emails a day. I have about 60 filters in my outlook express and it doesnt catch them. Some guy is now responsing to lazyDBA listserv emails sent ot the group with an anti-spam spam message in spanish. This is getting ridiculous.
