I did a search and did not see what I needed.

Is there a way to block spam going to my sprintpcs.com email address?? I have two other email accounts that I run through a spam blocker, but I have to send the emails to the sprintpcs.com email address from the spam blocker. I can't use the same spam blocker to block the sprintpcs.com or I get tons of repeat emails.

I hope this made sense....

Any suggestions???

Getting my email via outlook is something I haven't gotten to work yet. Plus, doesn't your computer have to be on 24/7??

Nope. Your computer can be off. The only time that you need your computer to be on 24/7 is when you are running a a mail server.

Actually, logging into imap.sprintpcs.com is where I think you are coming from. At this time, I don't think sprintpcs.com doesn't have a spam blocker since I too, have been getting spammed to my sprintpcs.com email address. Very lame. I think Sprint might be hosting spammers since I do tend to get a higher number of spam coming from Sprint hosted web sites and mail servers.
