Re: How To Block Spam Sender using Name Variations



Not really, but you could create a message rule that would delete all messages from the server where the From line includes "RonGrossi" with nothing else added. If you were ever to get a message from a real person with that name, it would also be deleted.

Please deliver feedback to the newsgroup, so that others can be helped. No one gets paid to help here, and the response rate from those that are helped is less than 4-5%. If that were how medical advancements were made we would all have died years ago. Thanks.

In Outlook Express 6, is there any way to block a sender that uses a name
followed by a different numeric each time?  In particular, something like
RonGrossi123456, RonGrossi456789, etc., where the numbers are replaced or
omitted, but would catch them all?
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.
