-pops- Posted December 24, 2004 Report Share Posted December 24, 2004 Hmmm... Nice Christmas present -not :angry: Artist, do you know of this mark&chappell or was it out of the blue?I use ePrompter to hold all my emails and any that I don't recognise as friendly I read on the server before, or if, I download on to my machine. This, of course, falls down if the message is from someone you know and trust - hence the question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mailwasher is a brilliant program.. that is what I use to preview my emails on the server and delete the unwanted ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt James T. Kirk Posted December 27, 2004 Report Share Posted December 27, 2004 another reason to not open emails from anyone you do not know. and myself i just delete them from yahoo or netzero when i see them in the lists. another thing you can do is set the options on your email clients to block any emails from that place or person using a filter. i have never got a baddy from emails by following these simple basics.
