Thanks Tom. I tried MailWasher but found it a hassle to have two programs open. Thunderbird is supposed to have a mail filter - except mine puts e-mails from my boss in the trash and keeps the porno ones!! Maybe I will look into it again. Riva Cyberspace Publishing wrote: Riva, If it wa

Riva, If it wasn't for MailWasher Pro, I'd have given up on email entirely by now. I've been using it since version 1 (3 or 4 years now) and would not do without it! I stopped using its 'bounce' feature a year or so ago, but for filtering email *before* it is downloaded to my computer, nothi

Hi all, I have been getting tons of pornographic e-mails and I don't know how that happened. I am very careful about what I sign up for and if I give an e-mail address I use a freebie one if I am not sure of the site. It is getting a little frustrating getting these and I know that there is
