This is old news but still worth mentioning. The famous dutch provider xs4all has been offering to scan you email for virusses for some time. But it was not for free and being typically Dutch I turned down their offer. Last week I found out that the service is free since the 1st of january. So I gave it a try during last week's Mydoom shower. Never had a better inbox. So if you have an xs4all mail acoount and didn't know yet...
Xs4all also has a spam scanner service. Which always was for free. The problem with this service that it is (still) to strict. Everyday I have to skim my spamboxes to find my newsletters. Which is not that much of a problem since I have my little DevMail.Net tool. More on DevMail.Net in a later post. It really is a great tool but like every piece of software, the docs could be (a little) better.
