Save Blocked Senders List ?

[kwunder]

I get so much junk mail I can't believe it ! Most of it now goes directly to the deleted file, which leads to these two questions :-

1) How can I back up all the rogue e mail address's that I've gathered in my Blocked senders list, so I can just restore them after a HD format & re-install ?

2) How can I get mail to bypass the deleted items folder when it is rejected from the blocked senders list ?

Thanks

I can answer your first question.

Backup HKEY_Current_User\Identities\your identity number\Software\Microsoft\Outlook Express\5.0\Block Senders joegz

How ?
When I view the key you state, I get just
Default (Value Not Set)
Version XxXXXXXXXX (XXXXXX)

Just back up the whole Block Senders key joegz gave. The addresses are at the Criteria key under that one. Click the plus sign next to Criteria and then click each of the numbered keys underneath. You'll see the addresses in the right pane. To back it up click once on the Block Senders key to highlight it then at the top click on Registry then 'export registry file'. Then give it a name and save it to a folder. That file will have a .reg extension. Save it to a floppy or cd. To put it back just place it into a folder on the drive and doubleclick the .reg file and merge it. That assumes you would reload the same operating system after formatting.

As for question two, i don't think you can. But you could create message rules and have the messages deleted from the server before they're downloaded.
