    Thanks for the info

    I'm just a little dubious about the coffeecup one because they no longer support it and its not on their list of software anymore (coffeecup.com). If you click on help from within the program it comes back as unknown.
    I cant help asking the question why did they drop it and not even replace it with another anti sopam program?

    Because of that I'm still looking

    They dont support it anymore because they dont, I mean they are always developing and dropping software like flies they are however really getting back into FTP software at the moment so I suppose the focus is on another product, having your own domain is the easiest setup I know as you basically copy your own pop settings but your ISPs smtp setting for outgoing if you input outgoing aswell, you need to set it up and thats that. it does take a moment to get right, also it works independently of any website plugins so once setup and user info input thats it.

    Ive been using it for ages now and no problems, like I say you just have to have the correct settings.

    According to: http://www.haisoft.co.uk/

    Every package comes with an anti-virus and anti-spam system based on SpamAssassin, one of the most powerful anti-spam system. This system is activated by default, and can be easily removed from the Control Panel.

    You can choose to flag all the emails detected as spam (add ***SPAM*** to the subject for example) or simply remove them. You can add email addresses into the White or Black list so all emails from them will be allowed/blocked.


    So it sounds like it's available should you want to make use of it.
