  Spam/junk

  Posted by don-wirth on 10/18/2023 at 9:36 AM

  Every day my inbox is full of emails titled “Please verify ID with a number coming from different sources. Or “2nd attempt” or “Conformation #”. And of course all of the things I have won from Lowe’s or some other retailer. I send them right to the Junk Mail folder. I never respond or even open any part of them, but the sheer volume of this stuff is very annoying.
  Is there a magic way to stop them? I wish I could answer with a code to blow their servers up.
  HELP

  Hello Don,

  You can take a look here for a write-up on creating mail rules for your mail client. You want to use the filter for “The body contains certain words” which should take care of the issue.

  Let me know if you have any further questions, best of luck.

  Thank you John, I’ll give it a try. Very annoying to have to send all that crap to the junk mail every day.
