***   It would have to be through your mail program. Look to see if it 
has that capability.

***   The CCN Office would have to answer that, but as with most 
spammers/scammers, they will eventually move on to a new list of 
e-mail addresses. Until then (and if you can't automatically have your 
mail program filter them), never open or reply to any -- simply mark 
each as "Delete" and empty them from your Inbox. Mine were gone before 
I answered this.  (-:
