Email address for dd - how to protect it?

I am just about to set a filter which doesn't allow any emails in other than those identified. This is a lot of work as I have to create a filter for all her friends addresses.

Is there any way round it?

Can you set up a filter which just returns any emails that are NOT in the address book?

what program are you using?

Outlook express for reading them and tiscali for the server.

Yes, you need a white list service. Instructions here for OE www.worldstart.com/tips/tips.php/915 and if you don't fancy that there are software plug ins which do the same.

Here is a list of spam filters - you want one that uses a white list.

if you use hotmail you can set it to junk everything apart from those in contacts list. Dp does that.
