Filter? / Rules?

"Bruce Hagen" wrote in message ... Sorry. That won't work. Not to mention they constantly change their address, so a From rule is useless as well. -- Yeah, I know. It's a tough nut. I have noticed that they all seem to be using the same partial X-Mailer string, so I'm gonna experiment with using nPOP to trash this crap based on that... but I'll probably wind up dumping stuff I want. *sigh* Oh, well. Thunderbird filters that crap very well: http://www.mozilla.com/thunderbird Alias Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express ~IB-CA~ "V Green" wrote in message ... Bruce: Already been to those sites - but thanks. I mis-stated my original subject - should have been "Rules?" Was wondering about a rule along the lines of ----------------- IF Subject = one or the other of the two strings in From THEN send message to burn in hell END IF ------------------ "Bruce Hagen" wrote in message ... You can't do anything with OE's message rules except to filter in your mail.

Any way to filter this gawdawful penny stock crapola that has started jammin' up my Inbox over the last few days? You know the one, where From is: Firstname Lastname and the Subject is: Firstname Can't filter it with the stuff in the message body (too bad, as they all contain stuff that can be used to do that) as filtering in the body causes the entire msg. to be downloaded to the Inbox. Can't figure out any way to filter based on From + Subject. I'm currently getting 60 - 100 a day of this dung.
