Default Spoof E mail

Is there a way of restricting receipt of e mails to senders listed in your
address book only? I am inundated by spoof sent 30/40 per day always on
different address and name but clearly from the same source looking at the
content. normal 'block message' rules do not allow for this option

You can create a rule that would move items from people other than those in
your Outlook Address book

With Outlook 2003, you can set your Junk E-mail filter to "Safe Lists Only".

junk mail filter. could you let me know where it is (i.e route tools.Message
rules etc?)

Further to my message of thanks to Brian / Vince I wonder whether my problem
is that this junk mail faility has been removed from Outlook Express 6 which
I use. Brian refers to Outlook 2003

This whole newsgroup concerns itself only with Outlook. Outlook Express is
an entirely different program and you're in the wrong newsgroup. Outlook
Express doesn't have a junk mail filter at all. The correct newsgroup is
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...xpress.general
