[iBook] Cookies

[Samantha Cornell]

I'd like to second the spam filter recommendation.

I use Mail (what can I say, it works...for me at least) and I use their 
basic junk mail filter.

It works very well for me, very few junk mail items slip through, and 
on the rare occasion that I do check my junk folder, I do not find 
valid emails.
