Spam E-mail Filter on Outlook Express
Ive been getting a bit of bother with Spam e-mail to my blueyonder account lately.
I have been updating the e-mail filter by blocking entire domain addresses ie- @blah.com

But every now and again a domain that I have blocked still gets through to my Outlook Express.
Anyone any reason why this is?
Oh, and the Spam e-mails are usually one of 2 or 3 similar formats. And since they change their addresses regularly Im still getting a load through, but the ones with the blocked address getting through is the problem I wish to tackle just now. I can deal with the other ones when I figure this out. (Or someone else figures it out for me )

Im good with PCs but this has me stumped. I was considering chaning my e-mail alias to stop this, but I have a few CVs out to companies with this current e-mail address and dont think it would be a good idea to change it just yet.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Astrax,

Welcome to PCHF.

I've not seen or heard of this happening before.

What I would recommend though, if your having SPAM problems, try: spamjab.com: Protecting families from Spam

I had SPAM problems recently, and I could not filter because the e-mails contained text in image format so that I could not filter out any specific word, and every SPAM message I received was from a different address too. I started using SPAMJAB. Sometimes it does block e-mails from new senders, but you can easily log onto the site, see what has been filtered, and unblock it if you need to.

Excellent, thanks very much.

Ill give that a try
