Solutions.
Anyone have any idea of how this kind of Spam gets through the Spam barrier?
Not having massive trouble but it is steadily getting more and more busy in my email inbox....and a lot of it is this stuff.
Is there an easy answer to get rid,or is it just computer evolution.

our spam filter at work is great, i love going through it when im bored. it will block things with such content as "the train is a bitch to get to manchester" but will allow some of the most obsene offinsive emails through no problem. we have a lady forward us a mail she recieved which was a whole paragraph of obsenities, my favourite being "cockjaw"

My Spam filter stops loads getting in...but its the SOLUTIONS emails that sneak through. Of course reading spam at work is fine cos its not your own computer/laptop getting fucked over by some evil virus that gets through  |

What are you using to block the spam? Make sure it is up to date, both the software and the spam definitions.
Some products are better than others but it's unlikely a software based filter will ever work as well as a real time / online system such as used by the larger mail providers. I route all my mail through my Apple account and it's the best filter I've used personally.

Is 'delivered or daily' the name of the sender?
