Currently I use Tiscali as my ISP and use a Tiscali Email address.

Lately I have been swamped with Spam (any body looking for Viagra, I got all the emails you could ever need).

I have been looking on the net for different Email providers and the one that has caught my eye is GMX (https://mail-eu.gmx.com/gb/cgi/g.fcgi/home).

Has anyone used this service? Or anybody care to suggest another Email Provider.

Cheers

I must admit, there's nothing wrong with the Hotmail Spam stopper. If you post your e-mail address in your profile on OLBG which I have done, sometimes you get people trying the old Pyramid System, or trying to sell you their systems, but that doesn't bother me as even Hotmail can block out quite a few of these, although I never can never understand that no matter what type of e-mail account I sign up for I always seem to get e-mails asking if I want to enlarge my breasts by two cup sizes Laughing ...

I think a couple of ppl have added me on MSN as well, which could be an ear-ache to them if I ever sign in, rant rant rant Laughing But all in all, I would actually recommed Hotmail, Win

im quite lucky, my jugs are perfectly sized. also i just use a ruler in place of viagra and everyone is happy. i rule! references guaranteed!

u just gotta refine yer spam stopper and ull be sorted. might take while to sort the exact spam u get, remember to block similar keywords to wot u actually receive.

johnnyfp - I use tiscali too but payed the few quid extra for their spam stopper. It stops most of the rubbish getting through except for the Holy Grail betting system emails, but I always enjoy those ones.

Try paying the extra before going through the hassle of changing suppliers Wink

Thanks for the replies.

I don't like the idea of paying Tiscali any more dosh.

I use Thunderbird as my mail system - and the spam filter works fine, bit it still has to download the 50+ items of rubbish before it can be filtered.

I think I will give GMX a go and see if this helps.

Microsoft Office 2007 comes with the new version of Outlook. That stops all my sick viagra messages coming into my inbox and works a treat. Win
