I just read a message suggestiong Zone Alarm, I've got a slightly more
elegant solution. My personal firewall (Atguard) can filter ports by
program. Simply set a rule up that denies all ports save 80 from msinn
(or your e-mail client) this should solve the problem. Slightly more
specific, and stops things sending e-mail that you don't know about.
