Hi all, I use Outlook Express 6 and used to be plagued with "Casino" spam to my email address but successfully blocked it with a message rule :

Where the From line contains 'Casino'
and Where the Subject line contains 'Casino'
Delete it

This has worked fine for several months but one sender is getting through again, I've checked the rule and it's still there/intact but I've just had around 50 of these one after the other :

From : EuroClubGaming <[email protected]>

Subject : Join Euro Club Casino today and get up to 400 Euro free!

The word Casino is clearly in the subject line, could one of the characters be spoofed? They all look correct, no lower case "L" for the "i" or "0" (zero) for "O" etc but the message rule is not seeing the word "Casino" from this particular sender.

Any thoughts?
 
From line doesn't contain Casino, try changing the logical AND to an OR, unless I've missed something obvious with the mail rules :confused:
 
Excellent spot, that made sense to change "and" to "or" but checked the options and "or" is not an option, I think the "and" in this instance does mean "or" Er.. if that makes sense :D

This is what I have to work with :

OK, looks like you were right, clicking the "and" in the box gives the following option.....:rolleyes: ;)

Thanks, think it will be fixed now :)
