the only program i've found that successfully removes ALL spam (their site claims 98%.. i experienced nearly 100% when i tried it.) is "motino". i don't use it though because i no longer use outlook. the way it works, is you teach it what you consider spam. and it analyzes future e-mails as they come into your outlook inbox, and then it redirects them to a spam quaranteen folder if they match.

currently i use "foxmail".. it's spam blocker isn't the greatest, but it is currently the best overall e-mail client for windows, in my opinion, and it's free.

Josho.. this program uses the same base algorithm as motino, you train it the way you describe... it will work with foxmail (or any other email client) and its free.

There is a paid service around that adjusts the "training" based on all the other users reactions to their email as well as yours.. apparently if you use that for their month long free trial you can then copy your training information over to spambayes too. (not sure of the name but know how I can get it if anyone is really intertested)
