There is a way to do that, and (assuming a Unix server is being used to host this web site) you can use a utility called "procmail," that is commonly used on such servers to examine the headers of all e-mail and either pass or delete mail based on the filtering rules established. Big catch there, though. Spammers are very well aware of programs like this and know how to trick such programs, by putting a dot between each character or spacing every other character in the subject header or body of the message. These people are dirty !@#$%&*(&% who deserve to be shipped off to the moon without a spacesuit. Don't do it. Cut the Yahoos lose. Stephanie
