Unfortunately, half of the email I get from this & other listservs is marked as 
Spam.  Our IT people have no answer--except they're quick to bring up that no 
internal email is being marked as Spam--whoop de do.  We also have a weekly 
newsletter distributed by an outside source, & even it comes in marked as Spam 
(no matter that I've tagged it as a Safe Sender in Outlook).

Seriously - unless you are running your own server, and you clearly  
are not if you are using OE, you can't block the spam from coming in  
to your client.  You can redirect it to other folders.  You can run  
certain security programs that will intercept it, but you still have  
to download at least the headers.

I do believe you can get on Comcast's website and tweak up your level  
of filtering, but they should already be doing that to a degree.

It is also possible that your machine is compromised and advertising  
itself as a target.  Do you run active ant-virus?
