How can I block messages with a blank FROM or TO field?
Every email address must contain the @ symbol, so you can use that to create a rule for messages with no address in From or To.
1. Click Tools|Message Rules|New|Mail.
2. Under Conditions, select "where the From line contains people" and "where the To line contains people".
3. In the rule Description box, click on the blue underlined "contains people".
4. Type the @ symbol, click Add, then click the Options button and select "where the message does not contain".
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the second blue underlined "contains people".
6. Click on the blue underlined "and" and select "Messages match any one of the criteria".
7. In the Actions box, select "Delete from server".
You final rule should look like this:
Apply this rule after the message arrives.
Where the From line does not contain '@'
or Where the To line does not contain '@'
Delete it from server
