Is anybody else receiving bulk mail from their own account?
It’s weird, at 1st I was receiving bulk mail from e-mail accounts similar to mine and now I’m receiving them from my own account but I’m not sending them. Is it possible some sort of hacking is involved? Is anybody else having this problem? How can I stop it? Thanks in advance to anyone that can help!
Unpredictable folder – Non-Spam going to bulk?
Some desireable e-mails are sent automatically to the Bulk folder. I am pretty sure I never hit the Spam button – especially, for example, when the sender was Wxpserver – one I ALWAYS want to read. I have opened the message in the Bulk folder and hit the Not Spam button. That moves the e-mail to the Input folder, but then a future message from the same sender lands in the Bulk folder again.
My Concern: Emptying Bulk without looking through the many messages I have no interest in looking for the ones I want.
Thanks in advance for assisting!
Thanks, d3midway.
I did not find the address listed in the blocks. However, I DID have 500 blocked addresses – the maximum.
I deleted one in case there is a software bug when max’d out.
How can I eliminate/diminish the amount of junk mail I get in my bulk folder without changing my address?
I know of addresses that can be used for the postal service junk mail, but not for e-mail. I do not want to change my address because I use it professionally. I do use a filter, but I need to review my bulk mail for messages that get directed there unintentionally.
A suggested hint for others; never give out your address to the Publishers Clearing House. I was okay before hand, but now receive 100-150 pieces of spam a day, even though I called them and asked that there sponsers eliminate me from their list. Help!!!
Why do I have spam in my inbox, with my own e-mail as the sender?
I was clearing out my bulk folder today and noticed that I had received several spam pieces that used my e-mail as the sender. Was I hacked? I dont feel like I was because my account has not been frozen, and also it is set to save a copy of all outgoing mail in my sent folder, and these e-mails were not in my sent folder.
