Thanks for the tip. That sounds pretty effective, actually. Care to share your rule? You just gave me an idea though. I think I am going to set up a maybe-spam folder and put your rules in it. That'll keep most of these away from my INBOX and also me from deleting my spam folder without looking. Thanks, Tim
