I don't mind paying for a solution and have tried numerous paid solutions, server solutions, you might say I'm almost all bayaneised-out, but I'll check that one out.

Granted it costs money, but it is absolutely awesome I can't think of a better way to have spent that money. Now, I never think about spam. I don't have to constantly maintain spam filters, check for false-positives, etc. I could go on, but you should do some research on your own and try out their 30 day trial.

Like you, I receive tons of SPAM on that address, but using the Postini service and Outlook filter I have had pretty good success in controlling it. As soon as I make a business contact, I add them to the OK list in both filters so they don't get caught. Like you, I'm a one man shop -- except I don't even have any part-timers. I really don't have time for SPAM. Usually I don't even wade through the 200-400 items a day that get caught in the filters -- I just zap 'em. E-mail really has become unreliable for important communications. Sometimes servers seem to get backed up for days (especially msn.com not too long ago), and many times the message never appears to get through. I'm starting to think that client correspondence might best be served via a private blog, if it isn't really urgent, and by telephone if it is. That said, most of my client correspondence is still via e-mail. My e-mail address has been published at camdensoftware.com and chipstips.com since 1997.
