Unwanted Spam Mail
7 Answers
With IE e-mail I get about on average 50 unwanted spam e-mails daily, whereas with gmail and aol I don`t get any at all, and I`m fed up with them. Can I get Virgin Media, whom are my suppliers, to pevent them like the other two do? Surely they should be able too.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I know what you mean and have had about the same quantity of spam. Whilst I cannot answer your specific point it might help to know what happens in another situation. My ISP is Orange and I frequently visit their webmail page which shows that most spam emails are automatically dumped (by Orange) as 'junk mail' and I can add others by marking them as junk if I wish. I also have other email addresses that are not so badly affected, but that is not to say that spammers won't eventually latch on to them. MailWasher is also useful. Good luck.
Do you mean OE, rather than IE?
If so try going to the virgin webmail page and logging in, I believe there are spam and junk mail setting there that will effect the emails you download.

Keep in mind though that if you filter mail out before it gets to OE then you will never see if you've filtered out any genuine mails.

Unwanted Spam Mail, implying there is some wanted spam around ?
You can get a spam control app such as Mailwasher. (Ah: I now see Coldicote mentions that one.)
My AV software now flags spam for me.
No system is perfect though, the best way to sort between spam and non-spam is reading it. Although I have developed quite some trust in present day solutions, but I still cast an eye over the titles.
