XP Pro SP 2 / OE6 / IE7
Getting a lot of spam where the targets are evidentally on the Bcc: header, because the To: and Cc: headers are empty. Like to send that **** to the Trash. I thought it might be as simple as creating a rule ' where To: contains "" ' but that doesn't seem to be it. Any suggestions, or known ways to specify this? |

For Blank Subject:
Box 1 - Where the Subject line contains specific words Box 2 - Delete it from server, or Delete It and Stop processing more rules to send it to Deleted Items. 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.
