Sigh.  Miss the point much, Rob?

@L Stone , a message doesn't have to list all (or even any) of the recipients in the TO field.  Your e-mail isn't there, some other e-mail address (which may be bogus) is.  This is pretty much how Blind Carbon Copy (BCC) works. The e-mail is addressed to you in the envelope information, just not in the visible TO/CC fields.  Spammers love to send one e-mail to multiple people, but don't want to put a long list out in the TO line.

Thanks for the reply, JefferMC.  It is spam and even though I've marked it as such, I still receive 3 emails a day from them.

My AT&T Active Armor isn't working, apparently.  I thought them using the wrong email might be the reason...

I can't find a way to block their email addresse.

Arrggh - the email addresses keep getting scrubbed. 

The issue is Yahoo,com mail coming to my bellsouth,net mailbox.

AT&T instructions above didn't help.  Leslie

At the risk of repeating myself:
