Hi Cajun,
there are some filtering programs availible.
I wrote an article a couple of years ago for Linda's All 'Bout Computers on=
filters and rules.
http://personal-computer-tutor.com/abc2/v13/mike13.htm
Some instructions for setting up filters:
from the Win 98SE Outlook Express 6 Help files:
To create a rule for e-mail messages:
1. On the Tools menu, point to Message Rules, and then click Mail.=
Message rules cannot be created for IMAP or HTTP e-mail accounts.
2. If this is the first rule you are creating, proceed to step 3.=
Otherwise, on the Mail Rules tab, click New and proceed to step 4.
3. Select the conditions for your rule by selecting the desired check=
boxes in the Conditions section. (You must select at least one condition.)=
You can specify multiple conditions for a single rule by selecting more=
than one check box. Click the and hyperlink in the Rule Description=
section to specify whether all of the rule conditions must be met before=
the specified action occurs (and), or whether at least one must be met=
(or).
4. Specify the actions for your rule by selecting the desired check boxes=
in the Actions section. (You must select at least one condition.)
5. Click the underlined hyperlinks in the Rule Description section to=
specify the conditions or actions for your rule. You can click contains=
people or contains specific words in the Rule Description section to=
specify the people or words you'd like Outlook Express to look for in=
messages. If you enter multiple people or multiple words per condition,=
use the Options button in the Select People or Type Specific Words dialog=
boxes to further customize the condition.
6. In the Name of the rule text box, select the default name or type a new=
name for your rule, and then click OK.
++ There is more on the web site.

Is there any way of adding a bulk list of spammers to Outlook Express' spam
