It's not the killing that hurts, it's the download time. Netscape 7.1 deals
with junk mail quite well, but I've had about 600 over the weekend, all
about 157 kb in size!

Some mail servers ARE killing them en route, the trouble is they send you
an email to that effect. :-)

Cheers,

Fortunately our mail server is removing viruses, but we're still flooded
with messages. Deleting all messages with words "undelivered",
undeliverable" and/or "virus found" in message body works fine for me...
