    Why don´t you make a massege rule?
    This works in Outlook Express:
    Apply this rule after the message arrives
    Where the Subject line contains 'Details' or 'Approved' or 'Thank you!' or 'Your application' or 'Wicked' or 'screensaver' or 'That movie'
    Delete it from server

    Well, it actually runs now. The single executable and no install is very nice. One annoyance is that it does not minimiuze to the tray or check automatically at a specified interval. It is worrisome to me that NotSoBig doesn't seem to scan for the sobig virus, but simply scans for key words in the subject line. Well, I could set my e-mail filter for that! I recommend another program, "Sobig Virus Stopper". It scans for the sobig virus, minimizes to the tray, checks at a specified interval, and even keeps statistics.

    Looks like a usefull piece of software.
    But just like the others here I get the same error when I try & connect to my mailserver:
    -ERR authentication failed
