Hi all

I heard there was a way to configure outlook to only receive messages that are sent to a specific address. ATM my email address is for example [email protected] but im recieving messagers for [email protected], [email protected] and so on.

How can I tell outlook to only recieve emails from [email protected]?

Any help would be appreciated, i came back from a 2 week holiday to find over 200 messages in my inbox, only around 30 of them were for me, rest was spam :(

Thanks all
 
You can tell it to leave messages on server that aren't for you. I think you can tell it to delete messages that aren't for you to - dig around in the rules.

You don't really want to be doing this though - you want to stop the emails being accepted in the first place. Go to your web/email host and turn off the catch-all email address.
