junk email classification should be one click or drag to junk fol.

[Guest]

I get 2000 junk emails a week. Your system for labeling them is cumbersome. I
have to do three mouse clicks for each mail. I should be able to block a
sender with one click AND I should be able to highlight multiple emails and
lable them as junk with one click. Because most spam comes late at night,
it's often grouped together in my outlook new mail. It would be so easy to
block them all and send them to the junk folder with one click. I should also
be able to drage them to the junk folder and it would automatically block the
sender(s) from that point onward.

How do you know what system I use?

I personally use SpamBayes (google it) and it works for me. However, if
you're getting that much spam, it might be better to see whether your ISP
has any spam filtering options - that way the stuff doesn't get into Outlook
to begin with. A lot of ISPs are starting to offer this feature.

To prevent getting more spam, never unsubscribe from it unless it's an
actual trusted sender/company, use OL2003 so that images & "web beacons"
that phone home to the spammer don't get launched, ask everyone you know to
use the BCC field when sending out mass mail, use a separate/throwaway
account (hotmail/yahoo/whatnot) when shopping/ordering things, or
subscribing to stuff on the Internet...etc.
