receiving bulk emails
Hey gang. at work, our logistics officer keeps receiving hundreds of emails daily from msnbc.com:top msnbc.com headlines.

these appear to be actual news headlines, but nothing that he has subscribed to. i have entered our hosting site for emails and requested that ANYTHING from msnbc.com is blocked. he also went to unsubscribe to these emails ont he msnbc website and they said that he wasn't part of their mailing list.

so how are these coming in and how do i stop them? are the emails getting routed through another email address? any info would be great. thanks in advance.

Dear TyStone72,
If you are using an Internet Security Suite, like KIS2009,you may mark the unwanted mail in the e-mail site as "spam" . Before that, it would be informative if the msnbc mail is "spam"in your mail and what e-mail program is being used?
