Outlook Express Message Rules

[El Cugino]

In Netscape, Thunderbird and SeaMonkey mail programs one can create a
filter that sends all messages from people "not in my address book" to
the trash can. I can view those messages withoug opening them to see
if there's someone I know. If not one click empties the Trash Can.

I can't seem to get the message rules to work that way in Outlook
Express. There must be a way to get it to work. Anyone know how to
write the rules that way?

Thankx

The boys in the Outlook Express newsgroups would be
able to tell you straight away.

In my news provider, I did a search using Outlook Express and got no
groups. Do you have a link?

If you want a program that stops all mail before it gets to your computer,
and allows you to read it, so you can delete or bounce the mail.
