Unwanted E-Mail

J

Recently I've been receiving e-mails that have nothing in the From
or the Subject fields. But I find no rule in Windows Mail to cover e-mails
such as this. Bad part is the everything thing is disabled in the Junk
E-Mail
message context menu so I'm unable to tell Mail it is junk. Dragging the
messages to
the Junk E-Mail folder didn't help.
Any idea how I might tell Windows Mail to delete these automatically?

Thanks,
James

you can create a rule and use the vowels as if NOT there junk it.
enter the vowels one at a time in the name field.

Don't understand. In order to create a rule in Windows Mail
I must select a condition(s). Which do I select?
Where do I place the vowels??

To create a message rule to catch them, tools>message rules>mail>new>Name
the rule NO TEXT>In the top box select 'where the subject line contains
specific words'> next box choose what you want to do to it, (do not choose
'do not download'), now select 'stop processing more rules'>now click the
blue text and add a, e, i, o, u, one letter at a time in the top line, it
will appear like 'a' or 'e' or etc>then click options>select does NOT
contain>ok your way out.

The Options button is disabled.
The text appears as I typed it:
a, e, i, o, u,

James you need to put the letters in one at a time interspersed by clicking
the 'Add' button.
