Okay Will, it's easy then. Just select one of the offending e-mails and go
to Rules under the Tools menu.

Create a new rule, and click the drop-down list under "If" . Choose "From"
Outlook will fill in the offending address for you.

Now use the drop-down menu in the "Then" box. Choose "Delete" and you'll
never see a message from that person again. It won't stop them from sending
them, but at least they won't be bugging you. They'll give up after a while.
It's only fun to do nonsense like that when you know you're getting through
to the person.

You could use some of the other options to take extra steps, though. You
could use "Reply" to send an automatic reply stating something like "This
email account has been set to refuse all message from "[email protected]". That
might get them to give up sooner.

If you have any trouble setting it up, e-mail me off-list and I'll send you
screenshots.
