Is it possible to bounce emails back to the sender so they think the
email is
no good which you can do in other email programmes. I am getting
emails that
cannot be unsubscribed and I don't want to have to put them in junk
email and
then have to empty it all the time.
So what good is bouncing going to do you? You will still end up with a
copy in Junk mail folder. You will still waste the time to download the
junk mail from the server to your local e-mail program. You will waste
bandwidth sending off bogus NDRs (non-delivery reports) and waste more
bandwidth. You will end up sending those bogus bounces at innocents
that never were involved in that mailing. You really think spammers use
their own e-mail address? Anyone that does get the bogus bounce can see
in the headers that it did not come from your mail server. Those bogus
bounces are themselves spam because you are reflecting the spam with
another new mail, so anyone receiving them can and will report your
bogus bounces as spam and get you blacklisted!
Learn to write rules that delete those mails rather than let them get
dumped in the junk folder. Learn to use auto-archiving to permanently
delete any mails that go into the Junk folder after they are over a
couple days old. Get better anti-spam software than the measly junk
filtering included in Outlook (presuming you are using OL2003 since you
never did mention WHICH version you happen to use).
