Another possibility is to use a News Provider that doesn't have their
head up and locked and actually has a real live person (or more) who
monitors what's going on and filters the obvious crap before your
news reader (or news downloading tool) even has a chance to see it.

You're correct that Windows Live Mail has poor filtering capability,
but it's good for Hotmail which is my main reason for using it. I some
other NG readers though, such as Gravity.

Never saw a reason/need for Hotmail. Any mail from a hotmail account is
assumed to be spam as no one would be using it for business, and at work

If they are on the road they might. Someone would almost certainly use
a Hotmail account, if they are away on a business trip to get thier Email.
One would just simply set the forwarding on their work Email account to
forward everything to their hotmail account, then they can pick up their
Email while they are on the road.

I travel a lot running my online radio station, and I use hotmail, when I am
on the road, to get my Email. When you are travelling, it is the most
convenient way to keep in touch.
