Hi Ginny, David & all; I tried setting filters in OE but the spammers change addresses and the spelling of words so often they never worked right. What I finally did was use the mailing list manager under tools and put in all the adresses I wanted to receive mail from. Everything else goes to junk mail. Works perfect so far. HTH --Thanks; Rev.
