Blocking Certain Domains
Can I block certain domains from reaching my inbox. Example; I want to
block spam from @yahoo.co.in without blocking @yahoo.com. I'm getting lots of SPAM (crap) from what appears to be from other Countries. If possible, explain how. Thanks

Too bad - Outlook 2003 offers to block TLDs from countries that you do not
want to receive mail from. This is not possible in Outlook 2002. -- Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook] Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact.

I guess I will wait... I assume a new version will be out at the end of the
year (2006/2007 version). I'm pretty sure all of the Office Products will be coming out too. Especially after Vista is Released. "Milly Staples [MVP - Outlook]" wrote in message ...

I think it does and that may help. Unfortunately, I will have to add
several Countries. Thanks... I will give this a try. "Brian Tillman" wrote in message ... JCO wrote: Using Outlook for many years. Currently using version 2002. If OL 2002 rules support looking in the headers, then search for "co.in". -- Brian Tillman

I tried this but it did not work. You can't search for a partial content in
the header. You can do this in the subject and/or body only. Thanks anyway. Maybe I should move to version 2003? Is that free or one that has to be purchased? My 2002 version came with Office XP. A new version of Office will come out near the end of the year but if Outlook 2003 is free, I will do it. Thanks again. "Brian Tillman" wrote in message ... JCO wrote: Using Outlook for many years.
