Hi there.
I keep getting e mails from different sources. They come in under a name eg. message from Karen. Postcard for you.and other peoples names with messages saying the report on his phys exam or your bank details are!!! My avg is picking these up and I delete them straight away. Is there any way they can be blocked from being recieved??
I think its a bit unfair to blame eircom.net for spam.I have an eircom.net address but luckily my Kaspersky AV has an e-mail preview pane similar to mail washer which gives me the chance to delete unwanted or unknown e-mails.I also have a g.mail address which coincidentally receives the same e-mails.It just places them in a spam folder.
If ISPs filter your email then there are privacy and false positive issues.
What about the email headers/metadata though?Email isn't private unless you encrypt it. Never email anything you don't want to see on the 9 O'Clock news.
You can't do much configuration if the ISP assumes total responsibility for blocking spam.False positives are a pain but can be managed with notifications and some intelligent filtering.

Outlook Express has a facility which allows you to block certain words, phrases, subjects, senders, and works very well once you have taken time to set up your preferences.
