Re: Email Message TO

Gary
Thanks
Can you please give some more details to create a
message rule in OE6 about this BCC trick.
I could try it.

And also by deleting my Primary email address from
oe6 and using the secondary something
like ???? AT btopenworld.com, will it
improve the siruation?
Thanks.

It's a bit difficult to understand what you're saying, but maybe this will
help. The "To:" address you see is not the address that's actually used
to route the message. It's something liike the internal address on a
paper letter. The address actually used to deliver the mail is on the
envelope. Email messages also have envelopes with extermal messages used
to deliver the mail. Most mail readers do not display the envelope.

In most mail sent by honest people, the envelope address and internal
address will be the same. However, spammers do not fall into the category
of honest people, so the internal address is frequently bogus (as is the
From address in most cases.)

There are various ways to filter out mail that you don't want, but none is
100% effective. You could create a rule that would delete all messages
where the internal address does not match your own, but that would
probably also flush mail from legitimate mailing lists and messages when
the recipients are listed in the BCC field.
