Windows e-mail clients

The Netscape 4.7 e-mail client can be configured to recognize incoming e-mails that have *****SPAM***** in the subject line. This marking is added by the Sentex SpamAssasin and suggests to Netscape 4.7 that the content of the e-mail is is SPAM. 

To have the Netscape e-mail client  transfer the suspected SPAM e-mails to the folder “suspected_spam”, follow these steps:

1. Open Netscape Messenger and click on File then New Folder.

2. Type in a name for the folder where all the Spam mail is going to be sent as your mail arrives - (without quotes) "suspected_spam" and click OK.

3. Click on Edit, then click on Message Filter.

4. Click on the New button. In the top box type in SPAM filter.

5.  In the box to the right of the one which says contains type in (without quotes) "*****SPAM*****".
   (To create the * on each side of the word SPAM hold your Shift key down on your keyboard and press the number 8 key.)

6. In the box to the right of the one which says Move to folder, select suspected_spam from the drop down list.

7. Click on OK twice.

8.  All your incoming mail with *****SPAM***** in the subject line will now be sent to your suspected_spam folder.
