Default Forwarded email

My OS is Windows XP and my email program is Outlook Express version 6.

Is there a message rule that I can set up to allow me to stop receiving all
forwarded email? Some of my clueless friends and relatives insist on sending
me pages of jokes, political propaganda, or some religious junk. You
doubtlessly know the type. As I said, they are clueless and never seem to
know when to quit - even when politely asked to do so.

Anyway, I tried setting up a message rule that says when Fw: is in the
subject line of an incoming email - to delete it from the server. I tested
the rule by forwarded a message to myself. Unfortunately, the forwarded
message arrived in my inbox.
