Entourage Junk Filter getting lazy

About two weeks ago, I had very little junk mail(5 a day, MAX) in my
inbox, but then one day, I started getting about a lot more, probably
about +20 a day. This is the case both with my POP and Hotmail
account. Have the spammers gotten a little smarter and able to fly
under the radar better? Is there something I can do to get Entourage
to pick up the pace and start catching this stuff again?

The Junk Mail Filter does not learn. Something outside of Entourage must
have happened. One rule I do suggest is "spam is from me". This catches the
real spam where it appears the mail is from you and not mail you send
yourself.I like the first example. I haven't met a spammer yet that uses
Entourage for a sending client.

Junk Mail where "From is Me"

Looks like a good hint - only problem is I can't read much of the
screenshot detail. Many web sites allow me to double click an
image to enlarge it - but mvps not so. It is a fair amount of work
to read some of the screenshot lines.

I'd love to see a text explanation or easily enlargable shots...
(speaking of text, it is considered by many poor style not to have
altText in gif URLs; there are people on the fringe with poor
quiality High Speed links!)

Thanks for the feedback. I'll try to add larger screen shots to the site. My
expertise is not as a web designer, but using Entourage. The site is a
volunteer site and I make no money from it so I have to work with what I can
afford to create the site.
