Is there a program available that simply allows only approved senders to go to the Inbox and
blocked senders to go to Deleted Items? Perhaps it could read the Windows Address Book for
approved senders and senders not in it are seen as blocked senders. I think that would be a very
effective and easy way to deal with spam. I would be surprised if there is not a simple freeware
add-on for Outlook Express that would do this.
This is already possible with a "Message Rule".
Do a Google on "message rules" and you will get lots of helpful tips and hints.
However, be careful with this type of rule. Your friends may not be able to send you their change
of address when they hop to a new ISP.
