Re: [LUG] Email security

On my emails I get hardly any spam. (I don't have any filters set up for
myself.) My wife gets lots. We have a web site and I use the email set
up on there (IMAP). Recently I have persuaded the wife to move across to
using emails on our web site to try to avoid her getting so much rubbish.

Don't ask me why, but she has started getting rubbish emails already. I
have set up some filters, which are already having to block over forty
addresses!

There must be an easier way. She has a fairly limited number of people
from whom she wants emails. Perhaps it would be better to set up a white
list of some sort.

Can anyone suggest some way to control this please? I can't just go on
adding more and more filter addresses for her surely.

Any ideas anyone please?

Does the misses use windows? If so she's probably got a virus or bot thats telling everyone about her.
