TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
In the past three weeks the volume of spam and junk email to my business
account has swollen to alarming numbers - sometimes 50 -100 per day or more
(and two months ago it was maybe one or two). I've tried blocking the
addresses, but each email from the same domain has a slightly different
email address (although the domain is the same).
I'm using Outlook Express - how do you block a domain, rather than an email
address? OE's online help has a topic titled "blocking domains", but that
topic never gets around to actually telling me how to block a domain - just
individual email accounts.
I know this is off-topic to Techwr-L, but if any of you have some simple
instructions for blocking crap from -dot- -dot- -dot- -at- c0olmail -dot- com I'll be most
appreciative.
(And I do wonder how this flood of spam suddenly started.)
