Thanks everyone for your replies,

        I have a few web hosts to look at now.

        The big problem is that automatic filtering does not work, in that it 
will bounce legitimate e mail.

        I use mailwasher to filter our e mail, I have it set to highlight e 
mail that is listed on some of the spam lists. I then look at it to see if it 
is legitimate. It does not take long ( I get about 20% spam, even though the 
web hosts is now telling me that filter everything ) and mailwasher keeps a log 
I check daily, incase I accidently delete something I wanted ( you can recover 
most of the text in the e mail ).

        I actually doubt they are filtering my e mail now. I was getting e mail 
listed on one of the lists they said they used, as they were telling me they 
will never will let spam on any of their servers. I want to change because they 
lied to me and refused to even apologize when they were caught out.
