It would be great if one could look at inbox headers and delete spam from the server before downloading pop mail.

Sure would.

The best I've been able to come up with to configure OE to open to my inbox.

That way I can view all the messages "from" and just right click and delete all the unrecognizable.

You're right. I don't know if bouncing spam will stop the spam. When I tried the program, it did bounce my E-mail and it looked legitimate when I got it back.

I guess it's like a guy who agrees to erect a "KEY POUT" sign on your property. The sign goes up, just as agreed, but will it deter anyone from entering? Dunno!

I get so very little spam, it'll take ages for me to determine if it's effective.

Cheers, PW.

P.S. My ISP sends bills by E-mail. Maybe I should bounce them. Wonder what would happen?
