block message doesn't work well
 

Hi all,

I, like everyone else, am tired of receiving Spam. I've blocked all the
various spellings of pen1s and degr3e (I still haven't figured out why these
people think that if I'm not interested when it's spelled correctly that I
would now want it from someone who can't spell them...I mean really, who
would want a degree from a company who can't even spell the friggin'
word???).

Anyway, there are a couple of words that keep slipping past my mail rules.
One is from "Doctor" and the subject line is always "Ultimate Online
Pharmaceutical." Somehow, those emails keep getting in, even though I've set
up a rule to not allow them in. The other word is "Logo," even though I've
spelled it with a capital "I" like they have, etc.

I would certainly appreciate some assistance with this.

Thanks!
Lisa

Thanks Bruce,

I read the links you sent. It seems to me the only thing that may apply is
that I had it set to "Delete from server." I don't even want them on my
computer. However, apparently that could be the cause of the problem. We'll
see what happens!

Thanks again!
Lisa
