And they work even better if they are used in conjunction with
SpamBayes from sourceforge. A free baysian email filter that
very reliably marks your incoming email as spam, ham or undecided.
Once trained, I have never had a good email (ham) marked as spam
or undecided.

I second that endorsement! Mozilla's (and now Netscape's) junk mail

I'm using Mozilla's junk filtering, which has been
terrific. I have it set up to send all "junk" to
a separate Junk folder. I then do a quick check for
false alarms and then delete it all, but you can set
Mozilla to delete it after a period of time automatically.
You train the filter by manually flagging junk for a little
while and then it takes over. In the past couple of days
since I activated it, it's handled well over a hundred
swen messages, with no false alarms and maybe one or two
"misses."

I've got my mail reader set to download mail every 2 minutes, then
the filters take over. That keeps the server clean. Admittedly, if I
didn't have DSL, it wouldn't work. No dialup could possibly keep up
with the
mess.
The ISPs are going to have to do something soon; if you haven't noticed,
a great many regular users are, for all practical purposes, offline.
