Re: [newbie] Yahooooo - nuther part at Fred's
If you haven't already take a look into setting up procmail filters. It's relatively easy, quick, and offers precise, hands-on control over the filters and the messages getting filtered. Can't say that I have. I'm using Netscape for my mail and haven't even had the time to figure out why it won't import my addresses :-) I generally don't get a lot of spam and so it's not a high priority for me. But I'll check out procmail as ultimately I want to get away from Netscape as a mailtool. Cheers --- Larry

Does it sit between the mail-fetching program and then inspect the mail as it comes in, or does it act like "fetchmail" and actually get the mail and then filter it for you? -- Mark ** =/\= No Penguins were harmed | ICQ#27816299 ** _||_ in the making of this | ** =\/= message...| Registered Linux user #182496

I have managed to get Junkbuster going Result - No more Ads!!! Wonderful John...how is Junkbuster doing its filtering? I've tried a couple of these in the Windoze world and they've always ended up filtering some stuff that I really needed to receive. Cheers --- Larry

It's an advertisement filter for your browser. Basically a couple of tables which are checked against as the data comes in - if the address associated with the advert is in the the no-no list it gets replaced by a broken image icon. Take a look at: http://junkbusters.com There are both *nix and Windows version - sure has sped up my browsing on a really bad line..

Larry See my response to Mark - the non-no lists are quite configurable You can add addresses you will accept in a 'trusted' list.
