Bouncer
Getting unwanted e-mails and SPAM? Bounce those messages back to their sender to let them know that e-mail address isn't valid!
Bouncer is a script for Microsoft Entourage (and Outlook Express) that will read through the headers of a selected message and responds to the sender as though the selected SPAM failed to reach the recipient.
Bouncer currently ignores "Errors-To" headers since an email's headers are often forged by the SPAM's senders in the way that an e-mail server responds if it can't find the e-mail address.
Bouncer is currently available for Microsoft Entourage (both 2001 and X) and Outlook Express for Macintosh.
Bouncer will NOT work with:
- Eudora
- Netscape Messenger
- Mailsmith
- any other Macintosh e-mail clients
- any Windows e-mail clients.
