I’ve gotten most of the spam stopped. But I’m still getting a few. What I do now is to block the sender without ever opening it. What I’d like to do is just block anything from certain @name of domain. The worst seems to be '[turnkey.net](http://turnkey.net) or something similar. And I doubt I’ll ever miss a message sent from [somewhere.de](http://somewhere.de). I did a quick look at all the options, but didn’t see this one available. Any ideas? ---

I’m using OE6 and I go to Tools -\> Message Rules -\> Blocked Senders List. On the Blocked Senders tab, click on the Add button and then put the domain name in the edit box. Click on OK and then OK again and Presto! ---
