Recently installed "SpamCatcher"


I recently installed SpamCatcher, and I'm feeling better about Email communications. We use the version for Outlook and it seems to be doing a GREAT job of filtering out the bad stuff. What is really slick is you can "train" it easily. As an example, when you tell it to block a spam message, if that message came from Russia, Mexico, Germany...whatever, you can also block at that time any future e-mails from that country. I'm amazed at how much of the spam is coming from off-shore! At this point I highly recommend it. Click on the title to visit their web page for more information and to download.
