I suspect MSN used the same method AOL used to slam junk emails - banning all incoming mail from SMTP servers originate on a consumer ISP connection, AOL did that earlier this year and the effect was really impressive.

yea i just noticed these last few days, hardly any junk mail at all (even in my "bulk mail" folder) though my isp adress is slammed constantly

btw... did anyone notice maybe 2 weeks ago that a lot of spam were escaping hotmails "enhanced" spam filter?

Yes it's a nice change to go into my hotmail account and not be greeted by 20 ways to improve my "growth" ;) ,

It's just a shame that my main ISP seems to have slacked off this problem :angry: ,so any benefit gained from hotmail i'm now seeing in my inbox from my ISP. :no:

hotmail has a nice spam filter.

i've been a member with hotmail forever and the spam feature wasn't there.

there are three settings: off, default and high (i think, but you get it)

it was never turned on by default for me because i've had the account for a long time but i think it is for new accounts.

how old are your accounts?

and maybe they turned if on by default for all accounts when they did the hotmail upgrade.
