Mail going to an Anti-Virus folder and marked PHISH

[Phoebe the Kat]

For some reason mail coming from two of my regular contacts is now being
marked [PHISH] in the subject line and going directly to a McAfee anti-virus
folder rather than to my inbox.

I have attempted to disable the PHISH filter, but mail from those two
contacts continue to be directed to that folder. I have marked them as "not
junk", to no avail. What really irks me is that the junk is still coming to
my inbox. Has anyone else experienced this problem? Has anyone overcome the
problem? If so, how?

Sounds like you need to ask McAfee about that, or whoever has written the
mail filter.

It could be that it's being marked this way on your incoming mail server,
and that you need to log into that and change the settings there.

The [PHISH] marking is not done by Windows Mail but by McAfee.
Disable all interaction McAfee has with email.
