Junk mail

[Bob Gardner]

I don't know whether to blame Vista, Windows Mail, or IE7, but the "not
junk" and the functions that are supposed to put spam addresses and/or
domains in computer limbo don't seem to work. I can tell the program that I
don't want to see any more messages from classmates.com, and sure enough I
will get one a few days later. I have consigned hundreds of domain names to
the pits of hell and they keep coming back. The other side of the coin is
that when I tell the program that a certain address/domain is not junk,
messages from that address/domain continue to show up in my junk mail
folder. Any ideas or solutions?

If you declare it junk mail under Windows Mail, IE7 won't notice. You
might try creating rules that delete the email after it arrives (click on
the
message under Windows Mail, click on Message, click on Create Rule
From Message, click on Delete It, and then on OK; then it should delete
all messages with the same return address.

For the wanted messages treated as junk, you might add the senders
to the safe senders list.
