Default Message Rules

Is there anyway to move blank subject lines to the deleted items folder?
I've got message rules handling much of the spam but I can't figure out how
to stop these blank lines.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Default Message Rules

For Blank Subject:

Box 1 - Where the Subject line contains specific words
Box 2 - Delete it from server
Box 3 - Click on the blue "Contains specific words" and Add *one at a time*
a, e, i, o, u, y, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,
Click: Options and change to: Does not contain....

{This is how it's been suggested to create the rule for a long time. I
include the entire alphabet so an e-mail with a subject like XP will not be
rejected}.

For Blank From: See rule #1, and
For Blank To & CC: See rule # 2 he
http://www.mindspring.com/~majik/messagerules.htm

For Blank Message Body, Do the same as Blank Subject, but for the action,
choose: Delete It and Stop processing more rules, as the message has to be
download for the rule to realize the message body is blank.

If you would rather it go to the Deleted Items folder than not seeing it at
all, change Delete it from server to Delete It and Stop processing more
rules.

Bruce, thanks for your help. I also get ones with "" and then blank.
Would the same system work by adding ":" in the rules?

That one isn't so easy. If you create a rule to delete or just : it
will, but it will also delete legitimate replies or Forwards that include :
and then any subject.

This question is about Outlook Express (or maybe Outlook). I see that you
have posted it to an OE newsgroup, but perhaps you misunderstood Access.
Microsoft Access is a relational database program. That misunderstanding is
perhaps understandable, but one can only wonder about some of the other
groups to which you cross-posted.
