I had a chance to run the new computer with the latest Outlook Express. It has a spam capture  program in it.

I didn't have to do any settings or filtering. Outlook created a "spam" file and so far over the last four days I see 29 emails sitting in it. EVERY one was a legit spam and many were those random book passage types. Some were Viagra or Rolex ads and others were hot stock picks.

Not one has sneaked thru into the regular email folder. 

It appears that fuzzy logic programing is getting better these days.  Nice not to see those stupid emails anymore... Grin

Use an "AM Courtesy Filter" to limit transmit audio bandwidth  +-4.5 KHz, +-6.0 KHz or +-8.0 KHz when needed.  Easily done in DSP.

Wonder if M$ has a downloadable version of that on its site, or at least an upgrade.  Mine  (3 years old) doesn't have that.  I rarely get junk mail thru my Hotmail account since they upgraded  their spam  filter.  But my ISP mail address somehow got into circulation.
