Anyway to block messages with multiply addresses on the To line?

If you mean is there any way in a message rule for OE to tell if there
is more than one e-mail address on an incoming message?

There answer is NO.

You can only check for the presence or absence of a specific e-mail
address (e.g. your own) or partial address (e.g. a domain).

But there's no way to test if there is your address plus one or more
others

As in you only want messages addressed to you only?

Tools | Message Rules | Mail | New.

Where the To (and maybe the CC line also?), line contains people.

Delete It & Stop processing more rules, (or Delete it from server and you
will never see the messages).

Click on the blue words Contains People.

Add every letter and number, (0-9), that is /not/ in your address. You must
enter them one-at-a-time and click Add.

OK your way out of the new rule.

You may occasionally see a message that has the exact same letters and
numbers in your address, but that will be seldom.

I asked the question wrong. My bad. I want to block messages that are
being posted to mulitply newgroups and are listed on the To line.

OE can't do that.
