Thanks Bill,

I'm already using the Amcom spam filter which prefixed with [SPAM] maybe
10-30% of the spam. 

I checked and I did have that option enabled. I am pressing control J
for spam but if it looks like a common spam subject/sender I'm making a
new rule to filter by that subject sender.

I do that that option checked "check incoming mail for junk" but I don't
know if its doing anything.

I also try checking on "include remote tests" and I'll see what that
does.


I'm currently getting about 100-200 spams per 24 hour period.
