Spam!

I have noticed a big increase in these spam phishing in my email in box and worst still can not block them, when I check the email address it shows email , so how can I block this when there is no email address?

despite technology, spammers will always be one jump ahead. Just like hackers and virus spreaders

I use MailWasher, just have to take care what you set.

Add the senders domain to the blocking list.

That's is the problem jim, my blocker will not block them as they have no email address.

You do have to wonder how they can send an email without an address!!

Maybe not an address but they must have a domain (source/start point).
