You can use Message Rules to filter some of your mail. Tools>Message Rules.
Look over the possibilities for weeding out the unwanted mail. Use the Help
files to get more information about Message Rules. Never give out your
email address to anyone you do not personally know, and especially not in a
public forum like these newsgroups. You can enter any name and email
address you want in the Properties of your newsgroup server account. You do
not need to enter your real name and email address! Set up an account at
Excite, Yahoo! or Hotmail to point the "fake" email address you enter for
replies to your newsgroup posts.
