Hi.

Does anyone have example scripts to work with Windows Mail and in
particular
with usenet groups? I want to build a spam filter to run on all the
groups
I am subscribed to.

Don't write your own when one already exists.

Tried that, struggled to get it to work. Maybe not compatible with
Vista! :-(


According to rec.photo.digital posts (subject: Help please filtering
google groups) nfilter/newsfilter is compatible with Vista.

I decided to try it again and found useful information in
news.software.readers. The main problem seems to be a bad self extracting
zip file which can be overcome by renaming with a .zip extension. The other
thing is to setup the correct security rights on the configuration and user
files so that vista allows nfilter to work correctly.

Appears now to be doing something so just need to test a few filters.
