Are you using Vista/ Vista Mail? If so I use the message/ junk E-mail, then
block sender. The problem is a LOT of the trolls here constantly change
their header to get around it. Desperate cry for attention I guess? shrug

You couldn't find two Saint Bernards if they were in the same
telephone booth with you.

Good response, and I bet over half the people on the
internet don't know what a telephone booth is. I haven't
seen one in the greater Los Angeles area for decades. Here,
public phones just hang on building walls, with no
surrounding walls or door.

I have no idea how to create rules. I'm not a software writer. How is it
done?

Thanks, I'll try that and see if it works as well as block sender did in OE.
I don't want to block email, just Usenet trolls.

It's called Windows Mail. This is a Vista 32bit PC. It should work so
thanks to everyone who replied.

In Windows Mail, click on tools, next to "message rules" there is an arrow
When you click the arrow it will give you an option to make rules for mail
and newsgroups. How to create the rules is self explanatory once you get
there, click on "new" and there are many choices to choose from, from
highlighting with color to deleting before reading. I'm not really sure if
this is what you're asking though?
