Hello,
Commenting here. I'm aware of this now and I'll make sure the Support guys are. Thanks for forwarding the emails Hmmm, I'm sure they'll be useful. Having just checked, Gerylisting is still there (it puts a link in the mail header) but I can't say whether it's working as it should yet, this will need to be looked into.
Thanks Eccles.
I've just been recommending you over on TBB while you were writing that! :¬)
[s]Hmmm...[/s]
Just checked my accounts DL they are all Freedom, perhaps I should upgrade them? I have 3 addresses in use, 2 are completely spam free at the moment but my main account is still suffering.
Can honestly say pete, if you have the opportunity and it is free to Freeola users, then upgrade to EmailPro. I've 6 addresses on Pro and 1 left on Freedom. Spam has been non-existent since I changed, on both strangely :¬)
Yes EmailPro works differently.
Info:
Did you know? Freeola EmailPro is included free of charge with any Freeola Broadband package!
With EmailPro you can blacklist (and whitelist) addresses along with other options which is useful.
Can you let me know if the upgrade route works for you as it only appears as a 'paid for' option for one on my other Freeola (ADSL + Domain) clients?
I was just about to ask Freeola about this so it will be interesting to know what you see - good timing :¬)
Ta.

Had a quick shuffle through the available options in MyFreeola and when I click on Email-Pro it asks me for a domain to link it to (don't have one).
When I attempt to progress further I get:
''Please be aware that in order to make use of EmailPro you will need one of your own domain names. As you do not currently have any Domains Names in your Get Dotted Domain Portfolio, you either need to add a domain to your Portfolio or register a new domain name, before you can proceed. ''
The Email-Pro option does appear to be available to me in MyFreeola at no extra charge but presume I'd have to set up a domain first? Not sure why this is the case, perhaps I'm in a minority for having Freeola ADSL but not hosting? Or do I need to set up a domain I don't need (for anything else) in order to get Email-Pro? I could of course have got everything totally wrong in which case all of the above is utter nonsense!
Really sorry I couldn't be of more help, I honestly did try and submit something useful on the tech forum for once but came across this huge lack of knowing what the hell I was doing!

E-mail Pro is in fact only applicable to a domain name owned by yourself. This is likely to be the case for the foreseeable. Freedom is the alternative when using our Freeola 500 addresses, however as you rightly say this does not include such intensive spam filtering.
As chas has just said pete, you'll need to have a domain to access 'free' EmailPro. I've had a domain hosted by Freeola for years now and that's why I can offer 'email' addresses to the family and to 'friends'. I can offer you one if you want :¬D But then, I digress. EmailPro for me has, at the moment, been spam free for all addresses since I 'migrated' ;¬)
sooo glad I started this topic now and thanks peeps for the tip...keeping everything crossed!
my next q. for another topic is how do I get broadband...I want broadband on Freeola please. I mean it's not like I'm living in the sticks, why can't I get it?
