windows mail spam

[Anne]

I turned off the junk mail feature cause it was more trouble than worth.
95%of things that I wanted to read were placed in the junk mail folder and
95% of the junk was in my inbox. This is easier...with me just deleting what
I want to...and read what I want to. However now all my email is labeled
"spam" especially when an email is sent back and forth...it could have 5
spam labels on it. Any ideas.

Windows Mail does not label any messages as Spam, if they are labeled then
your ISP is doing that?

Check your Tools menu>Junk mail options>safe senders and blocked senders,
add or remove addresses accordingly.

Check out the Spam filtering policies/options on your ISP mail account login
site.

HTH?

Either your ISP or your third party security software is adding those
"spam" labels. Windows Mail doesn't do that.
