Foolhardy? nonsense, just because you do not know how to manage your email

Perhaps Jerry, you would care to enlighten me, tell me how to set-up Outlook

Microsoft.

That should prevent all spam being sent from your copy of OE, unless
you deliberately send it.

_Blocking_ spam at the receiving end does not _prevent_ it...

It is possible, though messy, to prevent others from sending spam:
