Message rule doesn't work
Hello,
I get approximately 6.23 x 10^23 spams every day with the word "PHARMACY" in the body text, so being a smart guy, I created a message rule to kick those messages into the Delete folder. Problem is, it hasn't been working. To make matters more mysterious, when I send MYSELF a test message with the word "pharmacy" in the body text, it winds up in the delete folder as it should. Anybody know what gives? Thanks, Roy

Message rule doesn't work
If the word is in an HTML section of the message, the rule won't see it.
That is the spams that look like a small poster rather than just ordinary text.

Message rule doesn't work
Thanks Bruce - Looks like I need to do a little "homework." I will say,
though, that the offending messages look exactly like ordinary text to me. Is there another way to tell if the word is in an HTML section? Roy "Bruce Hagen" wrote in message ...

Anybody know what gives? Thanks, Roy Hi Roy These .gif type spams are like a picture and so message rules cannot read any text in them. Most come with a coloured background and coloured lettering. See if your ISP can stop these for you in your Mail Box. ISPs are slowly starting to offer spam blocking, but not all can block these ..gif type. If they do you may need to go into the Mail Box every 7 days or so and check that there are no genuine emails caught in there. Most ISPs that provide this service, auto-delete on a 7 day cycle. There is a very long winded message rule that I have read does stop them - what you do is set the message rule to block anything that does NOT contain a letter of the alphabet i.e. 26 rules. ;-( Rgds Antioch
