Barrie,

First you can turn off the html (highly recommended). This is under 
Tools-Options-Viewing Email. Uncheck the box that says "use Microsoft's 
viewer", meaning use Internet Explorer to display message in the text body 
of the email.

The message is then reduced to more of a text view without html tags.

You cannot actually block these messages from being received by Eudora (a 
spam filter at the ISP level could block them). But you can use the filter 
function to send messages directly to your trash mailbox using a word 
search on the subject or from lines.
