May I also suggest you look under help in OE and type in the word FILTER. There is a lot of useful information there that may help you to alleviate some of your porn e-mail problems.

The following is taken from the help in Outlook 2000.

About the automatic filtering of junk or adult content e-mail messages
In much the same way that retailers and businesses use mailing lists of postal addresses to send potential clients catalogs and other information, there is a growing business in using e-mail messages as a direct marketing tool. If you do not wish to receive these kind of messages, Outlook can search for commonly used phrases in such messages and automatically move them from your Inbox to a junk e-mail folder, your Deleted Items folder, or any other folder you specify. The list of terms that Outlook uses to filter suspected junk e-mail messages can be found in a file called Filters.txt.

You can also filter messages based on a list of e-mail addresses of junk and adult content senders. There are third party filters, which are regularly updated, that you can add to Outlook. These filters have the latest lists of commercial and adult content senders. For more information, see the Outlook Web site at http://www.microsoft.com/outlook.

Outlook also creates a list of the e-mail addresses of senders of commercial or adult content, which you can add to as you get unwanted e-mail messages.
