I have a spare Wallstreet I'd like to give to my 85 year old mother to use to get email from her family. The first time she gets an organ enlargement email, she'll never use the machine again. I think I'd like to create a system for her where only approved persons can send her email, or at least put unapproved emails automatically in the trash. Is there a way to do that?
The most effective way to do this is at the server. What ISP does she have? As loathe as I am to suggest AOL, they have this feature.
Others may have webmail clients where you can setup filters. Filter mail you want to INBOX and then set any other mail with a "." in the :From: line to go to a certain folder and then setup exception filters. That ought to do it.
