I receive an email periodically from a well known evangelist. If my cursor
happens to hit on it in anyway, I get a "script error". I click yes or
sometimes no, and my computer freezes up. I have to restart computer and
without clicking on that email delete it by deleting emails before it. How
can I put this email in my junk folder? Or, put it on my do not accept
sender's website?
 
My understanding is that Windows Mail won't try to run scripts
if you keep it in the Restricted sites zone.
(Tools, Options, Security)
 
Go to Tools | Options | Security and put WinMail into the Restricted zone
and then scripts will be blocked. Or read his email in plain text only.

Click to expand...

If the sender's name, mail address, or part of it is always the same you can
establish a new mail rule
- to not download the mail and kill it on the provider's server
- or to download the mail and delete it or move it in any folder you would
like to provide for that

Making rules for incoming mail is easy, simply try tools - rules ....

Alternatively you can use tools - junk mail options where you can add
sender addresses in a block list, but there I don't know what happens with
blocked mails on server side - I would not be surprised if these mails could
stay on server and cause an mail volume overflow some day.
