| | Windows mail is filtering emails into spam My work email address and that of my collegue is filtering emails as spam from each other and known addresses. The mails are only showing up on the spam email and are not appearing in my junk email folder. I have already added senders to my safe senders list and have sent and received emails to contacts up until a few days ago. I have also go to Junk email options and options and selected No automatic filtering yet I am still having the same problem. Please could anyone please advise on how I can either turn the Spam filter off or atleast correct this matter. |

| | Re: Windows mail is filtering emails into spam I don't understand your distinction between "spam email" and "junk email". Windows Mail has a Junk E-mail folder, but no separate 'spam' folder. Do you have any anti-spam software installed? Some versions of Norton security software include an anti-spam module. The one thing that overrides everything else is the Blocked Senders list. So make sure that list doesn't have anyone on it whose emails you do want. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "Nat Nat" <Nat Nat@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:45217B9C-68E7-40A9-B3ED-5435C2ED2AD1@xxxxxx Quote: > My work email address and that of my collegue is filtering emails as spam > from each other and known addresses.

| | RE: Windows mail is filtering emails into spam Nat Nat, are you possibly using any sort of virus protection software which also helps with emails? Some programs that didnt have it before, might have it now and you didnt notice. When you say spam email, are you receiving emails which "SPAM" in the subject? If so, your ISP is the one who sets this, and you need to talk to them, they sometimes can help slow down or try to attempt to slow down the amount of junk we all get in our inbox, by doing this. It still allows some iffy emails to come thru so that you dont miss important emails from friends.
