Dear all,
This question is about the interface of outlook 2000 and yahoo account.
Last time, I post a question to ask if there is any way to avoid downloading
my 300+ daily trash emails into outlook 2000 from yahoo account... The
answer was that the yahoo account can be set to "not to forward bulk emails
to my outlook 2000"...
I did that, it was great and I also use "mailwasher", now I basically block
spam emails out of my mail client! That was great!
But another problem comes out. Originally the outlook 2000 downloads bulk
emails from yahoo, it's bad, but it can automatically delete those emails on
the server... now it doesnot download the bulk emails, hence it does not
delete them. The yahoo accout does delete the bulk emails automatically, at
a periodical basis, but its period is too long, one week? I guess...
Now every half day, if I don't log onto my yahoo account and delete the bulk
emails manually, the yahoo account will be full and block any email
incoming, even useful ones... many friends of mine complained about
returning emails, undeliverable emails, etc. Sometimes even after 8-hour
sleep/one night, the account becomes full.
Is there a way to avoid this? I figure out the following possibilities:
a. Is there a hidden setting in yahoo that it can let me set how long the
bulk emails are going to be deleted?
b. Is that possible that mailwasher will automatically delete bulk emails
for me? maybe I should allow pop3 forwarding of the bulk emails and let
mailwasher to delete them?
c. Maybe I should allow pop3 forwarding of the bulk emails and is there a
way to let outlook fetches those emails directly to a separate mail folder
than I can always delete them without even looking at them?
Can anybody give me any help on this?
Thanks a lot,
