I would like to delete messages from the server but my OE determines in the message rules that EVERYTHING happens AFTER the message is DELIVERED..you can't change that. I don't understand why. There are places to indicate you WANT something deleted from the server but once you hit the final box for WHAT to delete or more it says " take this action AFTER the message is deliverd..so it all comes into the mail program.. *~<*> Mary Lou<*>~* /\ - /\ >> ^ .^ << --0---0-- kg6ocz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Why wait?...join Earthlink... ----- Original Message ----- From: "The Keyboard Cowboy" <KBCowboy@xxxxxxxxx> To: "!Keyboard Cowboy Group Send" <!Keyboard.Cowboy.Group.Send@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, January 31, 2004 2:12 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Intelligence on SPAM and viruses >From the Kim Komando List: --> GOVERNMENT TO ISSUE WARNINGS ON VIRUSES Internet attacks have become so serious that the government has started issuing e-mail warnings. Its first warning went out for MyDoom. You can sign up for the warnings at: http://www.us-cert.gov/index.html Additionally, many people have been having problems with mail getting "stopped" or "jammed" on there ISPs. I had two instances in the past three days. Investigation determined that a SPAMer was sending a SPAM message for a resort location (same SPAM message both times). The header of this SPAM had hundreds and hundreds of e-mail addresses in it to try to spoof the real sender. There were so many addresses in the "from" and "To" of the e-mail, that I was unable to get to it even using programs that read the mail on the server rather than downloading it (SPAM removal programs, and the "server" function in Poco). I finally called my ISP and got it deleted, and a filter put in place at the ISP level. They were able to determine that actual source as: mailbox.co.za I would strongly recommend that you make filters in any SPAM or e-mail programs you use that block that domain. Have the filters delete the message from the server.
