Seriously, what a load of rubbish, sorry, but Outlook spam filtering is a
joke.
They had the biggest test bed of email data using Hotmail, so should have
been able to do something better than they have so far.
It took them sooooo long to finally come up with a half-baked solution. We
were meant to get updated rule sets frequently, it appears we now have to
wait for service packs.
Do what I do, turn it off if available in your version, or don't worry if
not available (there you go, a version neutral solution!!!!) and get
SpamBayes. It integrated with Outlook, works heaps better than anything
Microsoft have come up with, you can train it yourself, and its FREE!!!!!
Chalk another one up to the Open Source Community!!!!
