Default How do I stop certain e-mails???

I have Outlook Express, and I am going crazy. And this is no joke. I get about 7 of these stupid e-mails every single day. Alway from different people with different e-mail addresses. I find out what the e-mail addresses are by clicking properties and the addresses come up. It is alway the same stock information about CHINA FRUIT CORPORATION. When I reply to them saying STOP SENDING ME THESE EMAILS!!!! I get "mailer daemon", no such address or something similiar. I can't block these on my Outlook Express because the subject matter is always different and the sender is always different.But the body of the letter is bascially the same. Take a look at the one I just got today!!!!

Then take a look at the nonsense that always accompanies the information after they give me the Symbol CHFR and how much it closes at. And there is absolutely no way to "unsubscribe" to these emails.

I do not for the life of me understand anything that is written after the stock information. Does any of this make any sense to anybody. and more important, WHAT ON EARTH CAN I DO TO GET PEOPLE TO STOP SENDING ME THIS ABOUT CHINA FRUITS CORPORATION?

This is a challenge. Anybody know what I can do?
Thanks, Melody

If you can't block them at all, i would ask for another email address off my provider and be carefull who you give it out to, if i don't know who the email is from, i block the sender & delete them straight away.

You can get a spam filter program or possibly your internet provider or email provider can help you set up a spam filter at their end.

Don't reply to those at all or try to unsubscribe from them because then you are just verifying that it is a active email account that they are sending to.

I use the free version of mailwasher and it works really well
http://www.mailwasher.net/

you open up mailwasher first and all emails are listed, and you then can delete, block and bounce back any that are spam etc

after getting their emails bounced back at them unopened, the spammers get the message

Tongue I delete everything from my spam box

Once in 100 or so a valuable mail gets put in the spam folder...

So I do scan sender a bit first. But I do not open ANYTHING when I do
not know the sender clearly. And never ever answer or unsubscribe!
That will get you so much grief.

I looked at a content once...and it was more psycho than yours.
Just disjointed words all jumbled up. I figure these have no purpose but to
carry a worm or virus into your machine. So I don't open anything anymore and just
delete delete delete... I was using the new Beta Yahoo and the spam got so
bad...I went back to the old version and it cleared up. I get spam in waves anyway.

Mrs. D. I'll do the mailwasher thing.

For some nutty reason, in my Outlook Express, there is NO SPAM FOLDER.

I tried calling up Verizon but they told me "we don't handle any questions about outlook express"

Bah humbug!!!!

But I shall try the mailwasher thing.

thanks so much.

Mrs. D. I downloaded the mail washer. The Free one.

I installed it. Okay, no problems there.

Then it asked me to give my user name and password.

my user id was already there but when I put in the password (I never use a password to access my outlook express, so I have no idea why they are asking me for a password but I remember when I initially set up verizon dsl and my outlook express, I used the password I always use for stuff and so I put in the password an I get the following message.

"Authentication failed Bad Username or Password

So what on earth do I do now?

So mailwasher is still on my computer. I cannot access it so I can learn how to use it.

Thank goodness I can still access my Outlook Express.

any info????

If your email address is *****@verizon.com
you probably need to use the password for that.

I haven't used mailwasher but it must access and clean your email first before passing it on to Outlook express.



hopefully someone will have a better idea for you about the mailwasher set up.

Yeah, my e-mail is ****@verizon.net and I remember the password I first set up outlook express with. At least I think I remember it!!!!The dsl lady over the phone helped me set up my dsl line and my outlook. It's so long ago, who on earth remembers what I put in.

I never use a password to get any of my outlook mail.

I'm screwed....boo-hoo
And I just got 3 more dumb e-mails about the China Fruit Corporation.

I'm going to go there and hit somebody over the head at this China Fruit Corporation. I have no idea what my husband did but he is on SOMEONE'S MAILING LIST FOR THESE THINGS.

The odd thing is they are always from different people. And the subject line is something dumb that has nothing whatever to do with the subject matter.

This is very annoying. I keep hitting delete, delete delete.

I don't open anything. But honestly I don't have to open it. When I click on outlook express, the e-mail is already there on the bottom of my screen.

AAAARRRGGGHGGH!!!!
