    Using OE6 which handles the Hotmail and my server mail. In the Tools> message rules> I've got:

    Where the Subject line contains '**SPAM:' or 'FWD'
    Delete it
    and Highlight it with Red
    and Mark it as read
    and Mark the message as ignored

    ... but seems that a few still get through. Have gotten off most of those stupid lists but still seem to get one now and then. Anything else I can do to actually stop those forwards from getting in? Is there a 'return to sender' function of any sort on OE6?

    Chas.

    There is no 'Return to Sender' facility, but as you have only a few troublesome emails you could always use Message > Block Sender.

    BTW - the sticky is for Outlook - not Outlook Express. Used to be two forums, recently combined.
