Angry "Thank You" emails

Anyone else getting emails for sender "Thank You" with attachments etc. I just started getting about 15 a day just after a fishing site sent me a thank you for an order. Now it has "Your Amazon.com Inquiry" which I never made one etc. What a PITA!! No opening...delete, delete, delete!

I don't even bother scanning...just delete right away. Seems like a legit error. Original came from Barlows Tackle then I just got bombarded with them.

Hey stinky one....how goes it??

Raven,

Yeah..it's Outlook Express. I tried the block sender but, for some reason, it blocks only the one. Almost seems like someone has a bad file that is sending "Thank You" from different email add's so that they all get through. It seems to have stopped. I'm wondering if the site corrected the problem because it started after they sent me a legit Thank You.

Let's hope it's over...that was real annoying!
