But, since I'm now with GMail,        DS> I don't use those others anymore.              I use the Free versions of Antivirus, Malware Dectectors, Mailwasher.       You already know I'm a cheap LID.       Others here probably know that too.               EV> If I see an unwanted Email after I used Mailwasher to see if the Mail        EV> Server has any for me I will go to the Web Mail site and delete that        EV> message,               DS> I would just zap it with MailWasher...it did allow a "safe preview"        DS> of the email.              "My thoughts" about doing that is that Mailwasher Free just tells the Webmail       Server only to DELETE the Email instead of letting the Webmail Server MARK       that one as SPAM and send it to the Email Accounts SPAM BOX, so the Webmail       Server CAN REMEMBER what i think it should do to the message so Mailwasher       won't even see it.              That is why I go to Webmail and tell it what it should do with future       messages sent from THAT Address.              Mailwasher Free telling WebMail to Delete the Email each time it sees one       from THAT Address, just because that Address is in its SPAM or Black List(s)       to me is making Mailwasher Free have to work overtime.              My method is to have those Emails never being been sent to Mailwasher free       again for it to see one from that Address anymore.              Of course Mailwasher does remember how I marked the Email and most probably       sends it to its Black List or SPAM List the first time I mark it as unwanted       so I wouldn't see it when I check Email with Mailwasher Free.              It just tells the Webmail Server to DELETE the message. OVER AND OVER...               EV> I don't use the computer for any bsnking, If I want to buy something I        EV> see advertised by a Companies internet page, I will call their toll        EV> free number to see if they will accept my personal check for the item        EV> and then send what I ordered when the check has cleared. Works for me.               DS> I use the app on my smartphone just to check the balances. I rarely        DS> write checks anymore...most of my transactions are done electronically.              I hope You never get BIT doing that.              I rather avoid the chance of what money I have going somewhere I didn't want       it to go to.               EV> Both of those things have crossed my mind, but I haven't desired to        EV> shell out any cash to buy new things for the c=64.               DS> On the Multimode Digital Voice Net last week, on The QuadNet Array,        DS> the question was on operating systems.
