Is it possible to only accept emails from approved address?

[Kirsten]

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to set up my account so that I only get
emails from people that I approve? My friend uses MSN and is able to do
this, but I cannot figure it out for the life of me! I am tired of having to
go the "block sender" route and would like to set up a list of approved
address.

Help!!! This is driving me crazy...the junk emails are killing me!!!



Thanks!

Tools>Options>Junk Email and change the setting there.

What if I do not have the junk mail tab you are talking about? Is that the
only way to do it? I currently have OE 6.

Thanks!

Kirsten,

Set the Junk Email filter to only accept email from people that are defined
on your safe list. You can set this up by going to Tools - Options.

Kind Regards,

Try posting this in an Outlook Express news group - this is not one of them.
Outlook is a part of Microsoft Office and is what this group supports.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and has its own news groups.
