Blocking a Domain Name in Outlook Express

[BlueMonday]

These mail ads are getting to the level of email bombing. I logged into my mail account last night to see twenty or so new messages, almost al of them advertisements. Fortuneatly, no porn ads yet, but it's just a matter of time before I end up on their lists too.

But the real problem is that I can't block them. Using the "block sender" option only blocks a specific email address. But the particular compnay sending me all this sh!t uses a different email address every time like 2345663345345363@tms5.com or 76876235097614651465@tms5.com. All the emails are just different numbers coming from one domain name. So then...how can you block a specific domain name?

Ok, this is embarassing. How is it that y'all can know every God damn detail of an OSI network reference model, but can't answer a simple question about blocking emails?

Come on, chunk rocks! Help a brother out.

I don't think this is possible in Outlook Express. In Outlook you have an Option in the Rules-Menu to select all messages that contain a specific word in the sender's-name, but in outlook express this doesn't seem to be possible.

I've had this problem to. When you are in Inbox, but haven't expanded the message fully, go to Tools, then Message Rules, then Blocked Senders List, then Add. You should be able to just put the domain name there. Hope it helps.

With which company is your e-mail account? It might be easier to block entry to the account, as opposed to trying to do it when you dial in.

EDIT:

Having looked at Outlook Express, do what Jayne said.
