In My Mail...

[ace0]

I had about 2800 some messages in my inbox from submitting to search engines...I recommend to all who do this get an email address that they can shut down...because I am not going through and deleting over 2800!!!!!!!! Sheesh!! (it was @ 37.com's email -bigmailbox) I received a letter in another account saying that if I didn't lower it lower than 7MB they would delete it or something...whoops! Haven't checked it in a while...

Yep, if you read tips pages for people submitting to search engines they suggest getting a new hotmail or yahoo account to collect that junk email they send you.

That's what I've done. I created heismanpat@yahoo.com as a dumping ground for any thing I sign up for. That truely is one of the best spam filters ;0

[Epgs]

yeah i have one for when i signup for anything.

ace0: which submission service did you use?

get an email address that they can shut down...because I am not going through and deleting over 2800!!!!!!!!

If the mail box is available via pop access, then one can wait some days and get mail from there with The Bat (a mailer) set to delete post on the server after fewer numbers of days. It will clear the box without getting the post from there. I did such. Might be Win can do the same. No, Win got the mail and deleted it on the computer side (!)

you can delete off the server in outlook ex

In OE I tried this through "Service" -> "Rules for messages"
(or smth like these)

I have an email address at Hotmail that sends everything it recieves directly to the bulk mail folder, which deletes it in a certain time period... I think.

That would be cool, I think I'll do that to my Yahoo! *spam* Mail. :)

Those spam guards are a joke. :mad: I think I've mentioned this before... Yahoo redirects all the real messages to the bulk mail folder, and all the spam gets into my Inbox. So, whenever I log in to that account, I check the bulk folder before I check the inbox. That's crazy! :mad:

lol, I get about half the spam in the spame filter along with any newletters that I've subscribed too. Then I get half in my inbox... they need a "Trash Inbox" button or something... :(

How about a select all button?

A select all button only works on the emails listed on the current page. You still got to wade through 10 or 12 pages.

Then they wouldn't make enough advertising dollars... although it would be nice! :)

Yahoo has pop access, so create a record in the mailer and web ads will be shown to the others. Not quite sure whether hotmail has the same access.

[Coolin]

When you use Hotmail with Outlook Express, you get ads in Outlook.

Without those ....gifs you get with web-box pages
