Outlook Express 6

by rwbyshe9 . Updated 15 years ago

Ok, I need a little help here.

Somehow my primary email address got compromised and now I’m getting spam from several repetitive sources. So far I haven’t figured out how to use a wild card in the “Blocked Senders List” that shows up under Tools > Message Rules.

Here’s one of the culprits: inf@myth.solemnlywindowpane.net
Here’s another: contact@durislove.com

What happens is everything after the @ changes with every email. I’ve tried adding the following to the blocked senders list to no avail: inf@* and contact@*

It does nothing within this version of Outlook Express. Each email address of origin has to blocked separately. I was wondering if any of you had found any way that a wild card can be used to block all email coming from a single source.

And yes I’m still using XP and Outlook Express 6 for my email I simply hate Outlook that is in Win 7 and simply don’t want to go there.

Thanks for any help you can give…
