Spyware Remover

Stop Spam - A Creative Solution
(presented by www.spyware-remover-free.net - spyware remover)



Some months ago I decided to get serious about stopping spam. I did an awful lot of research into spam, where it comes from, why it profits the spammer so much and the evolving methods of both sending and combating spam.

The culmination of this work was my informational website, and the e-book which covers the more easy to implement ideas for stopping spam. I also started a mailing list to send tips and tricks for combating spam to those with a similar dislike of the annoyances that flood mailing boxes.

One of the more pleasant side effects of this entire process has been the emails I now receive from members on that list with comments, thanks and occasionally…suggestions like the one I’m about to outline.

One of my subscribers found that if two email addresses received the same spam messages, one would pick up some, and one would pick up the others, but neither picked up them all. The user had created a chain of forwarding so that all messages passed through several accounts, with the filters taking out the spam at each stop before passing them on.

Now I set up a small test using free online accounts from yahoo, gmail and hotmail to see how this worked, and early indications are it is quite effective, if a little time consuming to set up. It may well be that it works BETTER with online mail accounts than pop mail accounts - particularly if the technology used to filter the spam is Bayesian in nature. The very fact you are passing on emails from one account to another may trigger a ‘not spam’ result from the filter, thus letting all the spam all the way through the pipeline. That’s what I would expect, but it’s not what I observed in my testing. So for now at least, this is a solution that will go a long way to taking care of your spam problems.
