Not to beat a dead horse but.....
Actually, with the web-based hotmail it's a simple menu item click to only
accept email from those addresses in one's own address book. All else can
be deleted before it even arrives in your mailbox.
Just add the Europa-group email account to your address book, as well as any
individual contributors, and all else is ignored.
Cheers,
Pete

The old dodge where you insert KILLSPAM
DiespaM
in the adderss
settings has some mileage in it. Also a separate call - charges
only
account or web - based account as above ? The
charecter does seem to upset spambots.
I am using my old university account for RX and various dial - ups
for
XMIT - this also seems to get spam sent to the TX @ which is why my
XMIT isp has a totally blocked inbox. Been onto them to try & get it
cleared. So try this approach perhaps ?
hope this helps .......
Fly good , Bryan
