    How to delete spam from the server

    Hi,

    I want to know, if I could eliminate the spam from the server as I have my mail on the POP3 server, I have to download spam again the same when I'm home and at work. Would it be possible to configure Outlook 2003 to delete these emails from the mail server without downloading to PC users?

    Even if you find a way to do this, you should seriously consider changing its mind. No spam filter is 100% accurate, and sometimes legitimate e-mails will be marked as spam. If discarded immediately, without looking, you could lose legitimate e-mail and do not know.

    The best thing to do is, try to integrate a function like this in a future version of SpamBully, it has an auto delete function. Just as spam classified as spam downloads will be automatically deleted. But this is a function of use at your own risk.

    To activate the auto delete ...... In SpamBully click where it says Spam Bully 3. Pull down to Options. Click Set Folder Folders. At the bottom where it says click Delete spam eliminate spam messages instantly.

    Unfortunately, messages are not marked as "spam", until they leave the e-mail reached our server and the proxy server on the way to client computers. I'm not sure if the proxy server can be configured to delete / redirect the SPAM from there, we're using a Ubuntu box running proxy software called Delegate to SpamAssassin.
