Jeff, while running SpamX in batch procesing mode today, it was impossible to use any other app as SpamX and Outlook, with it's pop-up requesters, kept stealing the focus even if both are minimised.

Is there any way to circumvent this? I am using the ClickYes utility to process Outlook's requesters, and I think the problem is probably an Outlook one, but thought I'd ask

Cheers,

Chris

Hi Chris,

Yepper, I'm working on a version right now that will allow Outlook (2000,XP,2003,Express) users to 'drag and drop' their email to a Windows folder, and SpamX will process the spam from that folder.

It won't use Outlook for anything. It will send the spam complaints using straight SMTP over a TCP/IP connection (just like the first versions of SpamX did).

Keep a look out for it...

Regs,
-Jeff

Looking forward to that release. That'll be an excellent feature.

Hello all.

Jeff, speaking of requests:

1) I add my vote (2x @ least) for Chris' suggestion above.

2) I'd also like to add a small one of my own. Early releases of SpamX had a text box where you could put boilerplate for the complaint recipient. Could we have that back? I have three short greetings I like to use, depending on the circumstances. At present, SpamX doesn't have that option.

Oops! I forgot to log in. I bow most humbly and beg frogiveness; I am Guest.

All is forgiven Codger...

Great suggestion regarding the boilerplate response.

You could always do the manual "copy complaint" thing and edit the e-mail with the chosen text ;-) but that defeats the automation of SpamX which is what I like so much.

keeping me eye peeled .-)

Am I going to need a matchstick?
