Mail Rule for Blank To

Hello all,

My users have been receiving spam where the "To" field is blank. I have tried to set up a mail rule to handle these, but the rule will not accept blank for the To address. Does anybody know a way to set up a rule that will trigger if the To field is blank?

I agree that would be nice. Unfortunately, IBM has not included that eventuality in the possible choices. This is a product limitation.

One way to eventually get around it might be to create a rule normally, but after saving it, create an agent that replaces the content of the To field with an empty string.

That might work, but then again, Notes might just ignore the rule.

I've got nothing to hide, and I'd very much like to keep that away from prying eyes.
