OK, I use Outlook for Email and have some pretty tight restrictions on what gets through...but I (and I would assume you) have an issue with foreign language CRAP...looks to be mostly Russian...

How the heck can I set up a filter when I can't type any of the letters... you know the ones with the little hash marks above them...can you change keyboards while in setting up a rule ??:hammer:

:soapbox:
 
See what I mean

Июньские Праздники - День Независимости

Hmmmmm....anybody read that?
 
Babel fish says it means:

"June Holidays - Independence Day"

Dunno how accurate that is...it could say fish hiney for all I know ;)

OK funny folks... I'm not laughing! Well, maybe a little, I think I'll use that fish heiny thing...

I know you would be Mikey.... from the lack of responses I'm guessing others are as perplexed as I am...

:hug:man.....
 
Mark,
Depending on what version of Outlook you have this may help :

http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/outlook/HA011590551033.aspx

Scroll down to where you see the international section. It says you are able to block specific language sets.

I looked on my version but, I don't have that option. It's worth a shot though :)
 
Since my email address dates back to the early 1990's there was a time (before the king of spamgot jailed) that I got hundreds aday no matter what spam catcher & filters I used.. so I simply made a rule in IE that all messages get put into the delete folder.. and then made rules for the ones I wanted to move into the in folder.. easy to do.. this way all messages are already in the delete folder (unless otherwise ruled out) and it is easy tfdo empty the delete folder without having to touch them.
Just don't empty you folder til you really check out who the messages are from
 
Thanks Heather, and you too Carol... I think I'll have to upgrade from 2002 ;)

Yeah, his post about the MS seminar in which you could get Office 2007 Professional for free just by attending. I attended on Feb. 22 and walked out four hours later with the disk to download. Office 2007 Professional and Groove 2007.
