10-15 e-mails a day with the "From" line empty?......Subject line is always something generic "About last night". "Are you ok". "Its me"....Blah blah blah.
Ive been getting these for weeks, tons of them....anyone else?

Norton, just deletes the attachment, and sends what is left, the attachment may have already been stripped by your mail server if you have one.

Yup, all the time. Anything I don't recognize goes into the spam can.

Yup........but my server scans fer virus's and sends them and spam to a separate mailbox I gotta log into ta check. They notify me I have mail......sumtimes good mail gets sent there tho by accident.....alot of the shit has no sender or message. Some has one heading but nother different subject not even related. My server's anitivirus strips the bad stuff like Paul said and removes the harmful part or attatchement. I know one thing.....I am tired of viagra crap and buy meds online crap.......not to mention the 'see me naked' junk from some girl. Spam'd ham Pam

I use Mozilla/Netscape 7.1 The spam filter works pretty good and sends 90% of that crap straight to the shitcan.

| What he said. I still get a ton of the spam crap, but it's because my wife can't get it through her head that you don't get nuthin for free on the net. She goes here and there and registers with our actual e-mail address.  Out of the 20 to 30 emails I get each day, I actually read about 2. The rest I delete.
