Junk-Email on SMTP Received

Improve Junk-Email filter in Outlook by making it possible to filter out on
the SMTP header field

Received: from shouldbeblocked.com ([x.y.z.w]) ...etc etc..

Spammers are clever and sometimes puts my own address as sender, ie it looks
as I sent the mail from myself to myself. This can't be blocked.

However, the received field could be used to block servers from sending to
you.

Hi - this newsgroup is for Outlook support issues. You can email
[email protected] with suggestions for product improvement.

You might also want to look into something else for spam filtering - I
personally quite like SpamBayes. Google it - it's free.

You can use a Rule for this that scans the message header.
