OT but useful to list members/ SPAM???

[kywes@bellsouth.net (Wes Brockway)]

I use Outlook 2002 and Oulook Express for my email. In them I have created
message rules. A rule I have is if a message has certain words in the
subject or body of the message then delete it. I include words related to
porn sites and university diploma, DVD or whatever the current pitch is.
This has worked for me thus far.

The only junk mail I get is on my Hotmail account which for some reason in
Microsofts mind message rules don't apply. So those messages get deleted in
bulk. One has to use the web based Hotmail to be able to filter messages
addressed to a Hotmail account.

For others wondering on my AOL account I went into mail controls and edited
it so that only people I know can send me email. That stopped my AOL spam.
