Hi, Terri. SBC also has a spam filter, but sometimes, it will block an executable file that might be sent to you. Being a beta tester for Kurzweil, I used to get the updates via email, but now, they don't do that any more. I suppose I could try it for a while just to see how it goes. The problem is that it might also tag some of the normal traffic from the lists like this one. Then, you have to review the junk box on line to make sure that nothing is there that shouldn't be.

Dear Paul,

My ISP has a spam filter called SpamAssassin.  It works well, especially
when I configured it to use the shell rather than graphics.

If you want to try out a free web mail service with the BN, there used to be
one at www.integramail.com. I don't know whether it still exists, but if
you should try it, I'd be interested in knowing how well it worked.
