How to block spam
I'm receiving a lot of spam from senders with no return address.
Here is an example, "Earn Teaching Degree" is listed as the sender.
I am familiar with filters and have many set and working, but each of these spam emails come with a different sender as described above. There is no "@" in any of them. I have used a *.XXX@XXX and that works fine for senders from the same location.
If I set a filter for that sender, another comes from someone else.
Any ideas on how to block or filter these?
Thanks for any help.

I'd mark it as Junk, and be patient. The Junk controls will eventually learn that this stuff is unwanted and start marking it as Junk automatically.
You could create filters for
"from" "isn't in my address book"
and even
"to" "isn't in my address book"
but these run a risk of unexpected yet welcome messages being filtered out.
Filtering on spam senders is pretty futile. It would be too easy to block if they consistently re-used a from address.
