Keywords to filter e-mail
Im looking for some more keywords for my e-mail filter. I have a hotmail account(don't gimme no lip)
 . I've had it forever and don't want to get ride of it but spam has become a problem. I started using the filters and they work pretty good. I can filter about 80% of it out now. These are some of the key words: Subject line contains: debt mortgage bill rate approve attention consolidation adult free cum sex penis From Name contains: offer I filter it to a Junk mail folder for sorting and deletion later. I didn't want to delete it right away because I thought something I want might slip through. So far nothing has. If it continues to only get the spam then I'll start filtering it directly to the trash. Does anyone have any common keywords to add to this list? |

bosco Go to the Hotmail site and set your JUNK MAIL FILTER to EXCLUSIVE. Anyone or anything not listed in your address book (at the Hotmail site) will automatically be deposited in the Junk Mail folder.
The addresses have to be in the Address Book at the Hotmail site. It is a bit tedious to set it up. But once set up, all the spam gets channeled into a single folder. Adding addresses as they come along isn't too much of a hassle. If you use Outlook Express, just set the sync to Download Headers Only for the junk mail. |
