I'd be interested in an answer to this question too. One of the reasons I use Eudora instead of OE is that it's filtering abilities are far more sophisticated and easily handle these types of spam.

Patricia, Do not "unsubscribe" from these junk e-mails. If you use the unsubscribe option, you have just verified to the sender of the e-mail that they have a valid e-mail address which they will sell to other senders of junk e-mail. Instead, select the junk e-mail, then click on "Message / Block Sender...". All future e-mails from this sender will be deleted. B.K.

Patricia I agree with BK about the unsubscribing but if you want to here's how to see the account it was mailed to. From your inbox highlight the message in question, go up to file/properties or rightclick the message and choose properties and click on the details tab. You'll find it there. tc

Patricia You can use message rules to block those emails as was already mentioned. For the future you can set up rules to download messages addressed to each different email address directly into different folders. Here's an example of how to do it. helpdesk.umd.edu
