blocking spam

[geggy]

Hi,
Like Mickey Mouse in " Smart Spam", I'm having the same problem; now, I've
noticed that some of this stuff comes from emails with a country, ie .de or
..jp etc. My question is, in XP sp2 OE6 is it possible to block countries as
opposed to the email address or domain? I'm blocking the domain with blocked
senders but the
b$%&*!@# keep getting through!

You mean blocking "From:" addresses with a TLD of .de or .jp ?
I think this is pretty useless, as "From:" addresses in spam are usually
forged.

You should ask in an Outlook Express newsgroup. This isn't one.

I did the question in a hurry before going to work and thought I popsted to
the one I was reading; obviously not. Sorry Brian.
