You're saying that webtv doesn't provide any spam filtering?

Then your only option is to go to a real internet provider.

You need spam filtering. Both my email program and my ISP filter spam.
Only a few spams get thru every week. If Webtv does not do it and your
Webtv email does not filter you are out of luck. Perhaps Jeff Gersten
can shed some light on the subject.

Bert This is a good suggestion. But in Surfer's case, she'd have to buy
a computer first. WebTV is television based and doesn't require a
computer to be used.

I wish I could help. Allegedly webtv has a spam filter that can be
turned o or off. Unfortunately, people have experimented, and it makes
no difference. We were away 2 days for the holidays, and when I got
back, there were 245 spam (with my filter on). I'd say at least 90% were
supposedly sent by "viagra"

If Microshaft really cared, they could set the filter to not receive
anything with the word viagra as the sender or subject. But, they have
long since stopped caring.

They do make it easy to discard large quantities of unread spam in a
very few easy steps.

She could sign up for a Gmail account and start using that instead
(assuming WebTV handles their website well). They do a decent job on spam.

Maybe this will help at least for a short time. I saw the list on
another site of the ones that were shutdown but I'm not sure where it
was reported.

That won't help. Homeland Security is shutting down sites that infringe
on copyright. File Sharing sites. Don't know what that has to do with
Homeland Security.......

Well there's the rub. they have already discontinued support on the
equipment so they really don't care!

One of my friends is an executive with MS and they closed that division
long ago. They only carry the subscription service over for those that
invested in the equipment and are too stubborn or whatever to get real
internet service. It is scheduled to be taken down in the future ... he
didn't know if it was a month, year or longer since that division is too
tiny to matter.

They did the same thing with their game playing site for those that
purchased MS PC games. Three or four years after their last issue of an
online game, they shut down the ZONE.

Time to join the world and get real internet. It is good timing too ...
holiday specials mean you can get real cheap computers!
