I asked another list about this and they said I needed to try Eudora list, so here is my problem. I have received an email that doesn't have my email address. It does say To:naina@TWLakes.Net which isn't my email. It doesn't have an attachment but has the number 212.107.196.165. I went to Geektools and they say this number belongs to someone in Russia. It has a place to be removed from receiving this kind of spam. I know not to do this because you'll just get more spam. Is there anyway to be removed. I did click on the remove highlight, which shows my email address not the naina@TWLakes.Net address. Can anyone tell me how to correct this or how to filter it from downloading in my mailbox? Not sure that makes any sense, hope so. Candace

You probably didn't see your email address because it was in the Bcc: area. That means blind copy. It keeps recipients of email from seeing who else it is sent to. But you can't create a filter to delete email with your address in the Bcc: because you will also delete mail from mail lists or email you might want to get. The best thing to do is just delete spam and forget it. If you try to remove your email, they now have a verified address they can sell to someone else. I get so much spam that I automatically delete certain subject lines without even looking at the body of the message. I do have a few filters to delete messages with certain words in the subject such as "business opportunity" & "make money" & "descrambler" You'd be amazed how many people want to you buy a cable descrambler over the internet, which ironically according to the FCC is not illegal to sell. It is only illegal to use it.
