I just finished the box of crackers you gave me for breakfast this morning. That flavor....what was it?
Hmmmm....cheesey sedona crackers!
I every now and then recieve an appointment request from an escort mall that automatically ends up in my spam folder only to be found days later when I am emptying it. What to do? The only thing I can think of is to respond immediately, appologize profusely, and let the gent know what happened.
Looking for another point of view from gents if it has happened to them or possibly a better alternative from ladies if there is indeed any at all.
Would checking your spam folder more frequently help?
Typically mail sent from web sites using a form will have a prefilled title (ie..Response To XXX's Eros Ad). Add a rule in your email client so that any emails received with these words goes straight to a particular folder.
You could use the same logic if the emails come from the site with any other consistant characteristics in the title, sender, cc, subject, body, etc..
Obviously, the easiest thing to do is to check your spam folder regularly and scan sender addresses or subject lines to see if anything should not be spam. Depending on your software or service provider, there might be a way to set up rules on how to treat your junk mail or spam as referenced in an earlier post, or flag an item as not being spam. The flagging option would only work with future e-mails from a particular address though.
Check with your website provider to see if there is an include list. You can put rules in these that never block email from a specific source. If they don't, turn off their filtering if you can and use the filtering on your desktop. While the spam is a pain in the ass, missing appointments has to be worse ...
Good luck
I mostly download my email into Outlook, which of course doesn't have designated Spam or Bulk folders, but noticed that a few times when I accessed it via the web, there were emails there (one from you, Elise, sorry..) from people I've received email from before all the time??
Why it chose to see it as Spam then, I dunno...??

feisty Irish lasses got you all wound up, eh?

can I please get in on this action...I've been a very badddddd boy and should be spanked often.......(I like it)
Huh? For years now Outlook has provided a way to filter spam using built-in scanning; it moves them to a "Junk Mail" folder by default, but you can configure it to put that mail wherever you want.
Of course you have to turn that feature on. When Outlook is installed, the Junk Mail feature is turned off by default. It should be the other way around, but what can you do?
Are you hosting your own mail server, or is the via a email client on your computer that pulls messages from an ISP?
If you are hosting your own mail, every mail filter I've ever used has a way to designate that mail from XX domain should not be filtered out, even if the default rule is to filter it. By putting that rule into place, you should get what is being deleted out. I believe Outlook has that function too, but takes some more digging to find out how to use it.
If you are doing mail hosting, and you are using Exchange Server, I recommend Trend Micro's ScanMail with the eManager plug-in.
Someone help I am not a wiz when it comes to puters... just drop me a line with step by step instructions and I will fix it ASAP. I get over a hundred spam day sometimes more... the thought of looking through it all every single day would make me swear off e-mail completely... LOL thanks for the advice everyone gave...
