| 51734 | 2002-05-31 11:45:00 | Have you tried the following? If you are using Outlook Express you can set up rules, one of them is Delete from Server. Highlight the offending message, Click on Message - Create Rule From Message - that will open a box with three windows, the first window is ticked by default Where The Sender Is - go to the second window and tick Delete from Server - now the fun begins, in the third window is the senders address. If the address is yahoo, xtra, mailcity, or any other common web based mail, then just Ok the rule. If the address ends in something such as grouplotto.com or adultmail.com, then you can create a additional rule to further block mail from that site even if they change the first part of the address from freecar to freemoney. Place your mouse over the address, single left click the address, that will bring up a extra window, in the ADD line type in the address from and including the @, so for example type in @grouplotto.com and that will block other messages from that site as well. If you were to apply this to addresses for sites ending in yahoo for example, then you would also block all good senders from yahoo as well. In addition I have found where the sender is using a set of letters/numbers between the @ and the domain name you then have to use the ADD feature to expand the rule so as to be just the domain name. Eg -freecar@bm67.uwin.com @bm76.uwin.com uwin.com |

IN short, there is no point in even pretending the message bounces. If you want to give them back, flood thier advertised websites! |
