How do I configue email to block sex-stuff messages. My wife is thinking it's because of my online activities. It's not!

Depending on what mail client you're using, you can probably create a set of mail rules that will get rid of most of it.

Mail client is Outlook 2003. I've set many rules with all kinds of subject words to be on the look for and tons still get through. I also use SpamBayes Outlook Plugin which stops at least 40 to 60 a day. I also run Spybot and Adaware often.

Spybot & Adaware won't do anything for Spam. There are other ways to create rules besides the subject text. You might want to use the Keyword Search function to search this forum for mail rules to find similar discussions.
