Outlook junk mail filter list

[Paul Chester]

Outlook 2003 SP2. I am constantly sent email from bogus sources for
performance enhancing drugs with variants of V / A G G R A, C / A L L / S
etc in the text. These are not picked up by the Microsoft filter (latest
updates always applied). It would be useful to have a local or server based
junk mail filter list that could be locally edited and applied in addition to
the Microsoft list.

Either get your ISP to do a better job or get Exchange which has an IMF that
works quite well. Outlook does the best it can after the upstream programs
try their best. Scammers and spammers are always one step ahead of the good
guys.

I simply use SpamBayes as an added layer and get almost no spam in my
in-box.
