You cannot do that with the limited rule set available for Outlook Express.
I'd suggest a 3rd party program to do what you have in mind such as Magic
mail monitor:

MagicMailMonitor
http://service.schlund.de/service/do...vice/magic.zip

You can set it up to always run at startup and use it to quickly monitor and
delete messages. Outlook Express can only check for "text" in the To, From,
Subject before downloading the message. To delete a message from the server
based on some other line in the headers using a message rule will not work.
Sorry.

As for users who are still running v. 6.00.2900.2180, is there some reason
that they are not installing updates from Microsoft. Such a version is
really out of date.

The mail rule is -

Where the Subject line contains 'POTENTIAL-SPAM'
and
Where the message is from the Some Network account
Delete it from server

But the rule engine loops searching for the required 0x0D0A0D0A

The problem appears with M$'s X-MimeOLE V6.00.2900.2180 headers. Messages
produced with the X-MimeOLE V6.00.2900.2962 contain the
required CR (0x0D).

OE 6.00.2800.1807 client successfully downloads the defective messages and
correctly applies a 'local' mail rule -

Apply this rule after the message arrives
Where the Subject line contains 'POTENTIAL-SPAM'
and
Where the message is from the Some Network account
Delete it

I want to continue avoiding the complete message download by having OE
scan the headers and delete them directly from the POP3
server.
