I am continually receiving emails stating that a continual number of emails
that I have sent (only I didn't send them!) "could not be delivered" - the mail delivery system says that they are from MAILER-DAEMON@ but the latter part of the email address is different each time - " etc - I am continually adding to "Actions - Junk mail options - blocked senders" but I now realize that this is a waste of time as every sent address is different. How can I get rid of them? Thanks |

you cannot, other than sometimes with rules.
they are just spam, possibly some one who has your email address has a compromised pc "waldorfedu" wrote in message ...

I too am suffering from this. I however noted that in nearly all cases,
although the adress of the sender changes, the first part of the address (before the"@") that it's being sent to (me!) is not one that I've set up or use. I've therefore set up the following rule to filter these out as follows: "Apply this rule after the message arrives through the [name1] account and on this machine only move it to the [deleted items / junk e-mail] folder except with ["name2@" or "name3@"] in the recipients address" where [name 1] is the account name after the "@" in your address and [name2] [name3] etc are the valid email user names that you have set up on the [name1] accounte.g. mary, john. Multiple versions of the above to cover more than one account can of course be set up. While this won't lessen the volume of spam, it should help manage it more effectively. Oh, and the deleted items / junk e-mail folder is your choice. I ran if for a week or so putting items in the junk folder to make sure it worked OK and then changed it to the deleted items folder "waldorfedu" wrote: Thanks for the info "DL" wrote: you cannot, other than sometimes with rules. they are just spam, possibly some one who has your email address has a compromised pc "waldorfedu" wrote in message ...
