Go to - Tools - Message Rules - Mail... If there's some sort of pattern e.g, specific words, people, subject etc, then these can be selected and deleted immediately. To be on the safe side, you can also create a new folder & send them there and review/delete them at your leisure. I'm not sure about commercial filters, but hopefully by creating your own rules, you can catch the majority...especially if you create a few of them. Upvote 0 Downvote

This is the best option for catching spam. Make it so u can only get mail from anyone in your address book or any other recognised email add. Zone alarm also good spam filter Upvote 0 Downvote
