This sounds like an Ad but I dont care...

SPAM sucks, we all know it but what can we do about it?  Microsoft had this idea about a Caller ID system for email, and there are many 3rd party solutions which will act as a proxy for your email.  In most cases they require that the sender be validated by the owner before any email is pumped through.  Pretty damn annoying if you ask me.

Well it has always been my belief that if people are serious about stopping SPAM it has to happen on the client and all you really need to do is get one simple tool:

SpamBayes  Read more here if you want a deeper introduction.

I tried the default Junk Mail filtering Outlook and it sucks, BAD so I went back to my old friend SpamBayes and I have to say I'am very impressed with it.  After one full week I dont think it has misfiled a single email yet. 

So if your relying on some other 3rd party crap, or simply on the Junk Mail filtering in Outlook give SpamBayes a try.  Its free!
