reading email from web - how to speed up
 

Even using my local ISP's spam filters, I get several hundred junk email a day. One of two of those is important mail, so I don't want to make the filters more restrictive.

When I am not at home, I read my mail from the web, either straight from my ISP or using mail2web.com.

Even with a fast connection, the pages load slowly and I spend 10 minutes or so just deleting the junk before getting to read/reply.

Has anyone a better method of managing this? Are there web mail reading services that set up filters too?

My major mail comes to me at my own domain. I do use a Yahoo account for messages that are not time sensitive but that too isn't a very quick way to process a lot of email.

Anti-Spam systems
 

I think your asking two questions:

First, you may need to consider a service like SpamArest. It sits between your email POP provider and you, looking for possible Spam. You give it a list of addresses that are acceptable to start with. If you get an email from someone other than on the list, Spamarest sends them an email that requires a response for confirmation. This is thought to help reduce spam sent via automated systems. This should help get down the total amount of message, which should then speed things up.

As far as an alternative for getting email whiel on the road. There are quite a few. I heard about this one recently that people seem to think is good.
