Hey Guys
Is there anyway of not downloading the junk mail in the first place


Hi Mark,
Other than hunting down the spammers (haha), you can set up the junk filter on your email providers website for your account. This will act the same way as the junk filter on your computer, but you will need to check them at the website instead. Plus, you will constantly need to update you safe and blocked sender list.
Good luck,
Shawn

Explore the possibilities?
Log in there prior to opening WM for a while until you get topside of the
spammers?

No. Not unless your mail provider has a server-side spam filter
that you can elect to use.

I still use fs accounts and access them via orange.
You will see a lot of posts from orange etc users because their customer
service leaves a little to be desired?
