Log on to your IDNet account the select the following;

1. Select Email
2. Existing addresses
3. Settings for your email address(s)
4. Configure message filtering, from there you can configure the spam filtering for each email account that you have with IDNet.

Failing that, there are several free programs which filter spam for you.   I'm sure some recommendations will come soon!

I've been using Mail Washer since it came out, and I couldn't live without it.  :thumb:

I have two idnet email accounts and I never get ANY spam at all.  I haven't even used the spam filter controls.  Weird huh?

I have more than anyone should and have also never had spam on them.

I get some, mostly for little blue pills- I think someone was a bit incautious about putting my name on a CC list  :mad:

But the IDNet spam filters, supplemented with a few added rules of my own, catch nearly all of it.

Trouble is, Bill, they keep offering me blue pills, but they are Valium. ;D
