My Mozilla mail the spam filter is 'trained' by you and I have found it
very effect, better than Norton's (which I disabled) and the ones use by
my ISP and hosting company...I rarely ever get a false positive (two or
three messages over the years) and more than say 80% gets flagged and
moved to junk.
Face it, if you want folks that you do not already know to contact you,
your going to get spam. I get junk mail in my mail box (snail mail), if
I take it down or hide the box it *will* prevent the junk mail but I
wont get my mail either! It's life!
