Message rules can delete from the server.
| Doug,
|
| It's no longer enough to do what you suggest although
everything you are
| suggesting is right.
|
| I think the user has to go to his isp to make sure their
spam detector is
| working (if they have one) and empty the hundreds of these
messages that
| they catch and delete them.
|
| I was doing what you suggest to good effect and then I
received notification
| that my mailbox on the server was rapidly filling up.
|
| This one is a real problem.
