Hi Anthony,

I've never tried a DNS transfer, so I'll bear that in mind, and thanks for the info. But in the meantime, and possibly of help to other Yahoo users, you might try clicking 'Mail Options' next time you're waiting for the Bulk Mail folder to disgorge itself of its latest batch of nonsense.

I set just three filters: where the sender contains 'microsoft', where the subject contains 'internet security', and where the sender contains 'ms'. I now get 5 bulk mails with the 142K attachment instead of 90.

If anyone has any better suggestions for filters and what they should contain, I'd like to hear them.

Regards
HJR
