I offer IT support to a friend ("mate's rates") who runs a small business in a workgroup environment. They have a website and one of the associated e-mail addresses is info@mywebsite.co.uk. They access e-mail via Outlook and the info@ address is bombarded with spam e-mail, detailing viagra, porn, Nigerian multimillionaires etc.

I've told them to disable the Outlook Reading Pane but they're almost obliged to open every e-mail, just in case it might be from a potentially new client.

Does anyone have any suggestions or will they just have to bear it?

Thanks in advance.
