    Question Ihatespam removal

    I decided to uninstall Ihatespam from my system because it was blocking some emails that I wanted. Now that it is uninstalled I still get filtered email? How can I stop this from happing
    Heard at a local auto-repair shop:

    Hi bojovan

    I saw this in a review of Ihatespam
    "when we tried to uninstall the program, it failed to delete the message rules it had installed in Outlook Express to filter spam, so it continued to send messages to our Deleted Items folder without warning us. Clearly, this software is not ready for prime time. "

    Looks like you will have to go to Message Rules and delete the settings it created.

    I did as you suggested and it worked. Thank You much, I wouldn't have known what to do without your help.

    I sure wish there was a GOOD program to control spam, I hate it more then telemarketer's...

    Look at www.mailblocks.com

    I have yet to receive one e-mail from an unsolicited source. Over 4000 blocked this year to date.

    Try using SpamPal (from www.spampal.org). I use it for my POP email accounts. Works great!
