Free Anti Spam Software

Exactly what does syntax error mean? I’ve found legitimate email in my spam filter in Outlook Express and cannot get it released because of this. I get the same message in Yahoo. The sender said he would be sending a PDF document. Any help?
The email address is exactly as typed. No spaces, not dots, anything. Could it be the type of document? PDF?

Hi There,
A big thank you to anon51 i followed the instructions and it worked out great. You have been the most help yet since i have been with Yahoo Answers. Now about filters. i have several pop-up blockers going at once and have a spam box checked in my Yahoo mail box and a Norton spam blocker in my Outlook Express. Are all these spam and pop-up blockers conflicting with one another. If i need a filter how do i go about choosing one and installing it?

In my dept mail i am receiving lot of spam mails. The sender’s name, subject and content are unique. So I couldnot set filters for that. I am using Outlook Express. Can anyone help me to filter out spam mail coming to my account to a separate folder like spam in gmail or bulk in yahoo.

I apologise in advance if my question is not worded correctly or if the terms I have used are not technically correct.

I receive all my emails through Yahoo mail but I am getting an increasing number of spam emails. Today, I purchased the MailWasher Pro software to help filter out the spam but it seems to want to link up with Outlook Express which I have never used because I could not get it set up. I cannot get MailWasher to associate with Yahoo mail.

1) Do I really need to have Outlook Express if I have Yahoo Mail?

2) If it isn’t essential , how do I remove it from the computer. It is not in Add/Remove and there is no ‘uninstall’ tool attached to it?

3) How do I get MailWasher to filter the emails via Yahoo mail?

Any help at all would be much appreciated.

Thank you.

I use OE as my main e-mail, and it seems that my clients who use Yahoo or Hotmail are not receiving my e-mails. I am using a secondary identity on OE mostly for business, which is where I send the e-mails from. The main identity is my personal account. I always ask the clients to check their spam filters, etc. and still have problems. I even tested it to send an e-mail to myself at this Yahoo address and it has not showed up! Help! I cannot afford for my clients who have yahoo accounts to not receive my e-mails. Is there anything else I can do??

A single application that will work with all three.
After two answers (thanks!) - how about those ones that ask for a response/action from the sender to verify not a spam sending robot? Or aren’t they foolproof?

everyday my Yahoo Bulk Mailbox is getting Overloaded with over 300 SPAM emails! Spamguard is not fighting off the amt of Bulk Spam I’m receiving. Is there any other option out there…free anti-spam software etc?

Spam identified on outlook express does not get fed back to ATT Yahoo

After accidentally clicking on a side banner of a website the other day, we have been boarded with pop-ups and unwanted CRAP that just will NOT go away. It is slowing down our computer and our internet considerably. It interferes with anything and everything we try to do online. CONSTANT full-page pop-ups, and most are for anti-virus and pop-up blockers! Sometimes when we’re not even using the internet (we are always logged-on with our internet service).

I’ve already downloaded the free version of the AVG program, as well as the Yahoo! toolbar anti-spy. AVG didn’t help much, although it did find and get rid of about 10 Trojan files (I have no idea what those are…)

Thank you so much for any and all help!!!

When accessing via Outlook Express?

Thanks
