Hi Andrew, your rule; 2. I notice that I get a lot of SPAM from servers which seem to have 'made up' 2-letter country extensions. Since I've been trying to filter mail on the basis that anything from '.cz', '.ru' &c is unwanted, does anyone have a neat suggestion to cope with this? (Outlook Express apparently hasn't got a NOT boolean operator.) ~~~ This one would eliminate my post, I hope they are not spam to you<g> Mike ~ It is a good day if I learned something new.
