Dah . . I get it now . .. I wasn't thinking that the person(s) was changing 
their email address.  I thought the emails were from several different people.  
My PC-Cillion just caught one of them and informed me that a virus was attached 
to one of them so Beware everyone.

  That is a filter, on the <From> field. The problem is, you have to keep doing 
that as long as they make up addresses. The ideal is to make one filter that 
will eliminate them all, at least from this spammer. If there is a key word in 
the body of the message that is consistent then you could use that.

  I know that Eudora is only for those who have acquired a taste for it, but I 
haven't found a better email client for Windows. Filtering is so easy, and 
within a short time all mail is going to separate boxes, and all the spam is 
separated from everything else. I used to use Mutt in Linux. The guy who made 
it said,
  "All email clients suck. Mutt just sucks less."

  If I'm in Windows I also use Popman. It has a very small footprint, and will 
check all your pop accounts, only downloading the headers. You can see just a 
little of the message with no HTML. I have about four accounts I check. It's 
amazing how fast you can delete junk and not have to pull it off the server.

    Hal, I've been getting tons of those also lately.  I've been blocking them 
by clicking on tools then block sender.  I'm hoping eventually they will stop 
sending that junk.

      You would need to use something from the header, either <To> <Subject> 
<From>, even if its just part of a field you can make a filter. Of course I 
don't know what your email client is, so...

        Anyone figured out how to block or auto send these to junk mail?? I've 
tried message rules based on the word 'stocks' but it's a image of some sort..I 
think?





        Any ideas? I seem to be getting a ton of these lately all from 
different email addresses of course.:))
