blocking email using only the domain suffix

F

I have been spammed with domains that end in .biz recently. They contain
pictures, this I cannot seem to get them by using the rules and alerts. I am
using Outlook 2003 professional. Does anyone know a way to set this up to
block the .biz addresses? How about the spam with only a picture of pills?

Thanks!!!

You could probably setup a rule that looks for .biz in email headers and
move it to the Junk E-mail folder.

I just checked and there already is a rule for .biz in my rules. It doesn't
stop them. Any other ideas????

Thanks, I will give that a try, but I think I have already done that. I will
give it another try.

HI, I entered "@*.biz" in the sender line for the Rules and it worked!

This puzzles me because Outlook's rules do not have wildcards. In other
words, the asterisk is just another character.

Really? I wonder why it worked only after I inserted the *? Whatever the
case, I am not having to read all the spam from .biz spammers.

Gratitude, Carl
