    Solved Good anti-spam for self-hosted email on outlook 2013

    Did you go for the lifetime license? What was the best discount coupon you could get for it and what price? I purchased "lifetime licenses" in the past and the software was no good after a couple of years. I bought wordpress themes and plugins which were "lifetime" and the developer stopped...

    Solved Good anti-spam for self-hosted email on outlook 2013

    Thanks for the tip with mailwasher. It's working well and the spam has reduced massively. I did notice that a LOT of spam was coming from my own comment form (contact form 7) via the wordpress website. I managed to take action by installing akismet and honeypot. I couldn't allow mailwasher to...

    Solved Good anti-spam for self-hosted email on outlook 2013

    The only criticsm I can find with mailwasher is that it is quite unintuitive to use. You have to first open mailwasher to empty your spam and then open outlook to review and reply to your email. Nobody else does anti spam this way, it's all done in the background. With mailwasher you are putting...

    Solved Good anti-spam for self-hosted email on outlook 2013

    Thanks, mailwasher is a bit better than spamfighter as they have a lifetime license and allow you to install on up to 3 machines. I've installed it and will give it a try. The trouble with these client side anti spam is the false positives are quite high.

    Any way to put shortcuts to documents on the windows 10 start bar?

    Anyone know if it's possible to put document shortcuts on the start menu. On the right of the list of apps. I don't see the point of the tiles used by default. I've never used the links there at all. What do most people use this for? On windows 7 I had links to documents on the start menu, for...

    System Interrupts high CPU at PC startup

    Do you know if the hard drive is SDD or an old mechanical HDD? CPU at 30% isn't much. Even on a powerful machine when you open office or chrome you'll see the CPU spike up more than that. I would suggest upgrading the RAM to 8GB (minimum). And retire the old mechanical drive to SSD. You...

    Solved Good anti-spam for self-hosted email on outlook 2013

    Hi I get anywhere from 30 to 50 spam emails a day sent to my inbox on my self-hosted business email. Unfortunately using gmail isn't an option as I have 4 emails (support, accounts, sales, enquiries). I'd love to use gmail to receive emails though. I am on a trial copy of spamfighter which...

    Solved Overclocking RAM and CPU?

    Make sure you do your research and make sure the components you have are overclockable or designed to be overlocked. I tried to overclock some ram a few years ago, and I couldn't get them stable. I'd get the BSOD constantly so I had to do defaults.
