blocking of invalid email address's

[Guest]

Good afternoon

I have 20 domain names, each with 2/3 valid email address's, how do I block
any invalid address's? on an XP Pro machine to prevent spamming and either
'black hole', block or bounce the offending incoming incorrectly addressed
items. Is there a simple software solution (preferably a 'bolt-on' to
Outlook/Outlook Express) from anyone?
I can't use the 'allowed list' method as I have too much incoming proper mail.

thanks

Create 1st Rule= To addy does not match addy1 & To addy does not
match addy2 & ... addy(n) then delete message & stop

You'll have to handle mailing lists separately- they dont list single
email addys.

Any advice is my attempt to contribute more than I have received but I can only assure you that it works on my PC. GOOD LUCK.
