Banning emailed based on subject line...


Howdy,

Is it possible to ban email based on the subject line alone? I keep getting these email with this subject... CNN Alerts: My Custom Alert I was adding them the block list and then I realized they're all coming from different addresses so I could be here all day trying to block them!

Suggestions?

Thanks!

Lyte

I am getting the same emails. Blocking by subject line probably depends on what email client you're using.

Even CNN has reported it now: Behind the Scenes: An inside look at CNN.com - Blogs from CNN.com
I noticed they don't insstruct people to block it by the subject line. Maybe they're afraid of their emails getting blocked someday

that is probably it Lyte, from what i have seen this is a big problem and people are getting some viruses or something in the links in these emails, nasty stuff, if you dont remember asking for the email do not click the link

Yeah, I know not to click any of the links... just can't figure out how to stop the dang things from getting through. Gar! And, my hosting company isn't much help either.
