By Back in March 2008 I decided that I had had enough of getting Spam emails and ended up setting up extra email accounts on my domain account to help filter spam out. Anyway, when I built the new PC I moved from 32bit Windows XP SP3 to 64bit Windows Vista Ultimate SP2 and will eventually move to 64bit Windows 7 Ultimate when it's finally released. As a result of the move to Vista I dropped McAfee Total Protection and started using the beta of Microsoft Security Essentials; even though I'm not actually in a qualifying country.
I've been really happy using MSE except for one little problem; Spam. There is no Antispam capabiltity built into MSE. To combat spam I have downloaded and installed Comodo Anti-Spam; mainly because it's free. However, this has resulted in my email package no longer filtering spam correctly because CAS runs separately from my email client; unlike McAfee which integrated seamlessly into my email client. Anyway, as a fix I have deleted the sub-accounts from my domain email and have set up an email forwarder to send all unqualified email to my Googlermail account. This appears to have done the trick and I'm really well pleased with the way googlemail handles spam.
