Diabolical Spam: Spoof Own Email Address As The Sender

Jun 22, 2009

I've been receiving hundreds of spam messages per day. Many of these take advantage of a diabolical trick: they spoof my own email address as the sender. Thus, if i try to block them, i block all messages that are returned to me from certain email lists that i participate on. How do i deal with spam that spoofs?

How To Stop Email Marked **SPAM**

Jun 25, 2008

Vista Home Prem/SP1 fully updated/WM. Emails from my bro-in-law have suddenly (since 16/06/08) been marked **SPAM** in the subject line. Since his domain is "freeserve.co.uk" perhaps this is triggering the subject renaming. Unlikely since other emaiIs from the same domain get through unblemished. Is this action likely to be through WM? Vista? or my email server? Bro-in-law is in my safe senders list. Any ideas how to stop this? A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

Can Not Select The Email Address From Address Book

May 15, 2008

Whenever i create a new email by click "To" to open up my address book for selecting any email address, or when i use "reply all" and want to add in some more email address from the address book, the computer start to run and till it stuck, so the only choice for me is to end this task and type email address instead of selecting email address from address book.

i thought that this is because i got too many email address, thus i deleted most of it and now only got 700 email address inside my address book, i just can not understand that when outlook express can take more than 3000 email address book, but windows mail can not take about 700 email address book. And somemore, this email address book is just useless for me, because whenever i want to use the address book, the windows mail is going to hang... and the only choice is to go to task manager, end this task and restart my windows mail.

May 29, 2009

I have several e-mail accounts. When I forward an email, it uses the wrong email address in the "From" toolbar line, not the address to which the email was addressed. This is something new in the last couple of days, as before it always used the address to whom the email was addressed.

Receive Email Message Is Not " SPAM" Can't Delete

Mar 23, 2008

From time to time I receive emails which have been marked as SPAM (in the subject line) I have a rule set up to delete such messages. Whilst that works well there is on occasion a message which actually isn't SPAM after all. I can copy the email to the desktop and edit it with notepad to remove the word SPAM from the subject line and then save and drag it back into Windows mail but the situation I have is that I have a (mail) folder which has a large number of needed emails incorrectly marked. Does anyone know of a utility that can be used to rename the subject line (specifically to remove the word SPAM) from all messages in a given folder?

Sort By Email Address

Jun 28, 2008

When sorting by email address, the first part of the address (before the @ symbol) is often "help" or "support" or some other standard word. So one should have an option to sort emails using the part of the address AFTER the @ symbol as well.

Email Old Address Deleted

Mar 28, 2009

My wife changed her email address. I dutifully went into contacts and made the change. The old address was completely deleted and "Contacts" now show ONLY her new address. However, when I open "Send Mail" and type her name, the old address continually pops up. Mail seems to have an odd set of rules as to which email address it will use, unfortunately, I have no idea what these rules are.

Email Address Auto-Complete

Mar 23, 2008

In previous versions of Windows with OE when I would begin to type the recipients address in the box it would auto-complete (or show choices if there were multiple matches at that point). Windows Mail for some reason is only doing this on a handful of my contacts and the rest I must click 'Recipients' and then select them from the huge list. Any one know of a fix for the auto-complete issue?
