Email filter program, but not Norton Internet Security?

So I used NIS before, but I just want to see if there's something out there that'll just filter my emails (for instance, in Outlook, so it won't display any potentially dangerous emails...that's what I'm mainly looking for, since I have Outlook set up so that there's a pane that displays the email you're on)...the rest of NIS is too bloated for me, since I'm running a smaller firewall software already.

Thanks guys.

The part of NIS that does the e-mail scan is the NAV. You do not need to install the whole NIS package. If you look at the folders on the NIS disk, you will come across a folder named NAV. Open that folder and you will see a file called setup.exe. Just run that file to install only the NAV and you will have your e-mail scans without the added Norton firewall. I believe that to scan e-mails you will have to have some type of Anti-virus program running. You may as well use the one you already have on the NIS disk, it's free for you.
