Excellent way to begin the new year: an opportunity to dig into the registry (one of my favorite challenges) and being introduced to Thunderbird (which is free). Somehow I didn't equate the registry, as I know it, with the Outlook Express' "Block Senders List". Thanks to both of you, and a good year to all --- Harold

<snip> Question: How does on go about "finding" someone on that list without scrolling down, squinting, and searching (the only options I see are add, modify, and remove). Seems there should be an easier way of finding an email address. <snip> --- Harold

You need to complain to your ISP about that, unless you're giving your email address out to a lot of places and fwd a lot of emails, and get a lot fwd'd to you with the addresses headers always left in the message bodies. You should be able to search the registry for the friends name or address then delete it from there. It may be in more than one place. --- Clint

Thw Blocked senders list is not for spammers. I believe it's limited to 500 entries, and spammers have relatively random addresses nowadays anyway. The Spam solution is easy; get Thunderbird: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/thunderbird/

Be sure to turn on the junk mail filter, and designate junk as it comes in, and you'll soon have a nearly Spam-free inbox. The TB install will also pick up your OE contacts and server settings, so there's very little setup to do. Don't bother with finding that address-TB will solve most of your mail problems. --- Hugh
