Hey all
I'm wondering how everyone combats spam emails. I'm starting go get far too many per day and, dammit, it's starting to bug me. I've not previously used anti-spam filtering... I'm wondering if this is solely a function of whatever is offered by your email provider, or the email software you use, or if there are any other techniques y'all use to block unwanted advertising while still receiving mail you want (like mail from mailing lists, etc.).
Hopefully this topic has not been discussed to death in the past... I did a quick search for "anti-spam" on here and only turned up one not-so-related thread.
I have heard of people using separate email accounts for spam filtering, but I'm not sure how this works.
What do y'all think.

P.S. I'm using Outlook on OS9 thru Bell Sympatico High Speed.
