Each time I get one of these e-mails, the subject and sender is different, making it difficult to block them I have had several of my customers talk of receiving similar e-mail. Has anyone out there in F1 land had these and found a way to stop them. Here's hoping HH	Happy Harry (321)

449721	2006-04-27 07:36:00	Get something like Poptray (http://www.poptray.org) which also acts as an email notifier program (it shows u how many emails you receive), without u having to open OE, or Outlook, or any other email program. And lets u preview / blacklist / whitelist / reply to emails, and delete emails. Or Spampal (http://www.spampal.org) same as above, but doesnt notify u of new emails. Or let u reply to emails (I think). BUT, Spampal can be a bit harder to configure than Poptray too. Either one of these will let u blacklist a whole ISP/domain. Or whitelist mate's / valid emails.
