Hi:
For the past several days, I started receiving strange, gibberish e-mails which I neither contacted nor responseded. It occurs almost every day, ... some day, even two, gibberish e-mails. It's easy to say, ... just 'delete' them, all, however one major concern is that one of e-mails stated regarding credit card that of course, I can NOT read because of either, foreign language or gibberish e-mails. My question is now, ... How to deal with those, strange and gibberish e-mails, all of which appears to be an exact same person who is e-mailing me? Thanks in advance for any help. |

Check the message source. (Ctrl+F3). If it /is/ the same address always,
create a message rule to Delete it from server and you'll never see it in your Inbox again.

Hi Bruce Hagen:
Thanks for your help. I really appreciate it. Today, there is NO strange and gibberish e-mail in my 'in-box' that is VERY relief, because for the past several days, I was harrassed by them. What I did is as follows; After Ctrl + F3, Tools Message Rules Mail Blocked Senders and put check-marked on 'Mail,' Since there is NO 'send-back to the sender,' I did it, above. However, is it a correct/right way to block any un-wanted e-mails? Thanks ALWAYS, "Bruce Hagen" wrote in message ... Check the message source. (Ctrl+F3).

Blocked Senders only diverts mail to the Deleted Items folder. With a Delete
It From Server message rule, it will never be downloaded, period. See the message rule links I provided. You do not want to bounce back e-mail. If it is from a spammer, the address is usually munged and a bounce feature would only result in an endless loop of bounced messages and Postmaster e-mail to you that it was undeliverable. Chances are that you have weathered the storm for now and /may/ be free from this spammer -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express Imperial Beach, CA "Violet" wrote in message ...
