West Union, Illinois

You probably cannot stop it, but maybe you can manage it.  There are programs that blocks email unless the sender is on your approved list. One example is Choicemail ( http://www.digiportal.com/ )

edit:  Oh, and as much as I like Outook (I use it a lot on my non-internet computer) I'd strongly suggest switching to Thunderbird ( http://www.mozillamessaging.com/en-US/thunderbird/ ) or something else. There are just too many crazies taking potshots at Microsoft products to risk it.

Another possibility is filtering.  I have one person who just loves to forward junk.  I am using gmail, so I went to the gmail site and set up a filter so that anything from his address goes directly to trash.  Once a week or so I sift through it and read anything that seems worthwhile.  Lavabit seems to have some features like that you may be able to take advantage of.  See http://lavabit.com/features.html

Server Side Sorting

The Lavabit e-mail server allows you to automatically sort your e-mail using a powerful regular expression engine. Imagine having your e-mail pre-sorted on the server into specific folders. For those of you who access your e-mail from multiple computers, this technology means you’ll now see a consistent view of your e-mail.
