Mailwasher works pretty well for a free utility, especially with heuristics set to "strong" and a good list of DNS Blacklist servers.

That's what I was going to recommend.

I've found that after a few weeks of bouncing all the bad stuff, that the volume of spam has dropped considerably.

Thanks, but will it delete mail I want along with the trash?

Is Mailwasher for use only with Outlook (which I don't use for security reasons) or can you use it with other mail clients, like Eudora or Pegasus?

Mailwasher works pretty well for a free utility, especially with heuristics set to "strong" and a good list of DNS Blacklist servers.

I've been using Mailwasher for several months.

1. The volume of spam has not abated.
2.  Many 'bounce' notifications come back because there is no legitimate email account being addressed.
      The bounce strategy is a waste of time on those who refer you to a website from a phony email account.
3.  Too often, I have failed to recognize a legitimate email, inadvertently blacklisting the sender and missing
     out on further emails.
4.  Mailwasher ties up your system while it does its thing.  Depending on how many bounces are being
     generated, this can take quite some time.
5.  I still use Mailwasher, but more from inertia than benefit.
