I’ve had Avast about a month now and the spam killer works pretty good, but lately it seems some spammer are still getting through and they ALL have the exact same subject line. Is there a way to fine tune the spam killer so as to not only blacklist their email addy but the subject line as well? It’s getting so annoying now that daily I have to “black list” and tag as “spam” the same emails over and over again because they use different email addys.

HELP???

FAQ https://www.avast.com/faq.php?article=AVKB167#artTitle

most mail clients (if you use one) have spam or message rules settings
if you acess your mail account from web you should find the same settings there or a option to mark a mail as spam

So… after paying for Avast the only response I get is from a BOT?!

Pondus is human, trust me… :wink:

That “bot” designation (of which there’s 3 or 4 sub-categories) is essentially just an in-joke, and is automatically assigned to any member who’s posted a huge number of times, typically over a number of years. Possibly someone else can steer you to the current definitions of post-count-based “ratings”. Sorry for any misunderstanding.

Thanks, Asyn, I was obviously too lazy to hunt for it myself. :slight_smile:

ok… you’re not a bot… good to hear. But my original question was never answered. It was “Is there a way to fine tune the spam killer so as to not only blacklist their email addy but the subject line as well?”

And I use MS Outlook 2010 (ugh) and it’s spam settings are so useless I bought your software.

Why not setup your own rules for managing the mails ?
