What ISP are you using? Most of them, even hotmail, have a spam filter set before it even gets to you. I doubt if you are hosting your emails yourself so go to your ISP and set up your spam settings there.

Until then you can set up rules in Outlook that will delete or move emails to folders depending on key words that you specify.

Hi Mate, I'm with Orange and in 2 days 3,700 spams arrived in my Junk Box but another 200 plus got into my inbox :o It's the ones in my inbox that are a pain because all the ones in my junk box i just delete but the amount arriving his ridiculous so i need something that slows them down or stops them all together if possible??

The problem has got much worse since my computer crashed and i had to have the hard drive recovered and Windows was reinstated but i lost all my other programmes :(

Thanks for replying any more help would be appreciated because i aint no computer expert :old: :D :ayatollah:
