Not really - you would be better off trying a third party spam blocker
program. I use SpamBayes from Sourceforge.net (free and open source) and
have been for almost 2 years. I seldom get any spam, especially ones with
..gifs.

Thanks Milly,

I went thru the Rules and tried to set up a filter in Outlook 03, and they
give you nearly every option to INCLUDE something for filtering, but not to
EXCLUDE something.

Will give your suggestion a try.

BE sure to keep a few of these around for training SpamBayes initially. You
will see an almost immediate improvement.
