I get a lot of spam mail with email addresses using only numbers and various names. For example: GutterProtectionDeals Partner <30571@579694083661413.com>. How can I create a filter for this type of spam? The subject and numbers change with each email. Thanks. Larry

generally you click on them all as spam and the filter learns the type of message you consider spam. The spam filter will look at the email, not the from address as that is usually spoofed on spam anyway.
