I am trying to control spam in my inbox. I use Outlook. All the rules seem to work for most of the spam except Anatrim. I have tried several ways to stop these emails but they just keep coming. Anatrim is always the first word in the body and the rule doesn't deal with it. When I create a new rule and check the run this rule now box it clears my junk mail of the proper spam and permanently deletes it as requested but the next time I get spam, it's invariably Anatrim. What can I do. |

Hello albertr, First of all, go to this website: Spambayes on Sourceforge http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/ and download the Spambayes client from here: Spambayes download http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/spambayes/spambayes-1.1a3.exe?use_mirror=kent Once downloaded, close Outlook and then install Spambayes. Once Spambayes is installed open Outlook (view the read me files if you wish) and you will be presented with a screen. Choose "I haven't prepared for spambayes at all" and click next. Now choose "I want to continue without training and let spambayes learn as it goes". Browse for your inbox (it should be automatically selected). Choose next and then next, then click finish. Make sure to highlight the email that you do not wish to keep and within spambayes click the Spam icon (with the evil face). Spambayes will now learn as you register your spam. Both outlook antispam and the spambayes spam filter will work to rid you of the unwanted spam. Hopefully this should reduce the amount of Anatrim spam you get. If you have any additional questions, let me know and I'll be glad to assist you. --keystroke-ga |
