I see what you mean, there is no way to avoid the download of unwanted mail.

Well, thanks anyway.
I wish I new the technology behind, so I could write a little tool in C++
But I am NOT a Pro on that, just my hobby.

Oh well..........

How abour secure group or something like that, I hear something like that
too, damm, I loss my notes on a crash / restore.

You can create a SAFE group that the mail will come in, while anyone
not on that group will not be downloaded ?


Done using rules to create a whitelist of accepted senders. However, and
because it is a rule, it gets exercised AFTER the entire message has been
retrieved. You can define the rule to:

Move/delete/whatever all mails
except those senders[listed in this rule | in a contact-type folder]

If you choose to use a contact-type folder to list your known good
senders, Outlook doesn't let you specify multiple contact-type folders
within the same rule. That is, you cannot have a dozen contact-type
folders and list all dozen of them within the same rule (i.e., if sender
is in contact1 or contact2 or ...). You need a separate rule to test if
the sender is in the contact-folder for each contact-folder. Rules are
OR'ed in the order they are listed, so just don't use the stop clause in
the rule so each contact-type rule will get OR'ed with the next one and
use the stop clause in the last contact-type rule.

Since Outlook will still require the download of the entire message before
it will exercise a rule, you may want to do something like:

Move all mails to some folder other than the Inbox
except those senders in your contact-type folder
[optionally use stop clause in last contact-type rule]

That way the only mails that will left in your Inbox are from known good
senders in your contact-type folder(s) and all others have been moved to
some other holding folder, you [permanently] delete them, send them to the
Junk folder, to some "suspect" folder under the Inbox, or do whatever you
want with them. This makes your Inbox exclusive to only showing mails
from your known senders. The other will get fully downloaded but won't be
in your Inbox.
