VPS email spam

[theodotcom]

Hi
I've recently purchased a hosted VPS, it came with plesk however it came with no anti spam for the emails. The email address is one i've been using for several years and I get about 15-20 pieces of spam a day that all come through to my iphone and outlook.

Is there any free good antispam program that can be run on the server to avoid this?

Also do I need to run an antivirus on the server?

The server is a windows server if that makes a difference.

Thanks

we looked at free ones but for £6.50 a month it was a no brainer plus it will cover 100 domains

Will give it a go, thanks.
1 thing... is it easy to install into plesk?

Another option that i find works is to forward it to a gmail account because the SPAM filter there is very good..

I just do not like gmail...!!!
