Is there anyway to block email in outlook 2000 from a users' pc? I have some people who are getting tons of junk mail, and instead of passing it to their junk folder, we'd like to bounce it back to the sender. Thanks!

Setting up rules to delete junk mail when it arrives (which sounds as if you've already done) is the only way that I know of in O2K to get rid of it.

Have you set it up so that it goes directly to the delete folder?

If you bounce it back to the sender, the only thing you'll do is validate the e-mail address, allowing more email to arrive. If you want to track down the sender, I'd recommend Sam Spade, a small utility that reads headers, and follows it back (if possible) to the original ISP.

Hope that helps,

Rita
