What do you use to filter spam emails?
I am using two different email programs purely because I find it easier with the large amount of emails I get but I need a better spam filter for one of them!!

I just use the one in my website admin panel. Only just switched in on so don't know if it works yet.

I have three but that is possibly more problematic than having none!
I host the domain and email addy with 1and1.co.uk and they have a built in spam filter which catches a lot of the spam but also catches quite a fair bit of genuine mail too.
If it gets past that I have Mailwasher Pro (but you can get the free version) and that highlights spam or suspected spam in red. That is fine if I'm sat here working but if I've been out of the office or first thing in the morning, despite skimming it, often I miss genuine emails.
Finally I have the spam filters active in Outlook too.
The three things together do work hard to combat the spam BUT I do lose a lot of genuine emails too.
