Thank you for the advice, but how do I stop unwanted emails coming
through?Windows' Mail Junk filter does not filter many, only the very
obvious ones and I am daily invaded with marketing emails, which I would
like to stop and/or bounce back as MailWasher used to do on XPs.

Do not use any 'bounceback' feature. Except for legitimate companies,
spammers seldom use their own email address in the 'From' field.
It is likely to be some innocent third party.

I'm having Outlook 2007 too. But I do not see really important
differences as far as SPAM-filtering is concerned.
The main thing is to have a Provider who is able to sort things out.
At our university we have a most efficient system and hardly any SPAM
gets through.

If you get a ton of email and or you rely on them for business, then
you might think about switching to Outlook. It is more expensive,
but it is better. You can read up on it here:

"May" ?????
Sorry, NO!
Not the "easiest" one.
The *ONE*and*ONLY* one.
As to my experience one can do whatever one wants, one does not get rid
of the pest of SPAM if things get through to one's mail-account on the
ISP's mail-server.
Junk-mails have to be killed prior to reaching the account.
Nothing else is really viable.
It may cost a few $$$ more for having efficient SPAM-filters working
with sorting out the trash. But for sure it's worth it.

Thank you for letting us know about Outlook's filtering capability.
You beat me on editing my post to say "May".
"May" ?????
I must agree with you on the provider's filter.
It is the easiest way.

Thanks, Shawn.
I had read this as the month of May ;-) ;-)

I never used Outlook, so that is why I said "May" be better at
filtering. I could not confirm it was better.
Thanks, Shawn.
