Hotmail Junkmail - Page 2

Nanobyte · 11-05-2002, 12:36 AM

There's some company out there that enjoys torturing me personally. I think it is THE telemarketer of spam. I've probably blocked 25+ different email accounts, all from the same company, all trying to sell me a college scholarship or something.. I don't know, I got so fed up with it a while back, I just block any new emails when I see its reference via subject. You ever see that commercial? Snickers Crunch bar I think, where the guy drives all the way to the telemarketers office just to smash him with the phone? I'd like to do that.

Actually my yahoo account gets more than my hotmail one.

The other day I got one for half priced divorces and another asking if I wanted to buy 1000 pounds of beef burgers

For some reason, despite the fact I have the highest filter possible on my Hotmail account, a lot still manage to get through to my Inbox.

My friend says that she doesn't get any at all in her inbox, that they are all sent to her junk mail and automatically deleted......

well I managed to not only filter the junk mail but I also filtered my mates,so now when I want to read my mates E-mails I have to read it in junk mail! the only reason I can think of why that happened is becouse I am dumb.

Maybe she has a 'safe list'or something. Every address not on the list is deleted to your junk mail folder.

I get loads of spam, I never open it and block everything but this week I get more than normal. About 4 each day
