Setting up KwikShield in Microsft Outlook Express
Virus and Junkmail Guard

<< back to KwikShield Main Page
 
Lets Begin

• Before we can begin to setup a filter in Outlook Express the first thing we have to do is to start Outlook Express.
  
  
  
• Once Outlook Express is up and running we can begin to create our mail filter by first clicking on the "Tools" menu and then selecting "Message Rules", finally click on "Mail".
  
  
  
• This will open a new window. Here we will have to place a checkmark beside "Where the Subject line contains specific words".
  
  
  
• Next we will have to decide what we want to do with the email that has been tagged as being junk mail or containing a virus. In this example we have chosen to delete these emails so we have placed the checkmark next to "Delete it" in the second box.
  
  
  
• Now in the third box we will have to click where it reads "contains specific words".
  
  
  
• This will open another window. Here we are asked to type the specific word we are looking for. So in the smaller box we will have to type in "Virus". Once we have that typed in we have to click on the "Add" button. This will cause our word to drop down to the lower box. Now in the same box we have to type in "Spam". Then once again we will have to click the "Add" button. Once again it will drop down to the lower box. Now all that is left is to hit the OK button.
  
  
  
• This will return us back to our original window where we defined the conditions of our mail filter. Here all we have to do is to click the OK button.
  
  
  
• Now we will be returned to the Message Rules window. Here we can see that our filter is now listed with a little description under it. All that we need to do here to complete the process is to hit the OK button. Once that is done our email filter is now setup to remove both virus's and junkmail.
