Junk Email

My junk box in filled with hundred of emails a day, with all sorts of suspicious and some vulega details. Selling things, explicit images and links to fraudulent activity. I constantly spend time going through and blocking but still get more and more. Thankfully I am not stupid enough to open or click on anything but others could be and it is dam right frustrating having to sieve through in case there is something I may have missed gone into junk. I cannot keep wasting time blocking, what is the solution? Or can I open a new account and redirect all non junk email coming in?

    Hi, I'm Brian and I'll try to help.

    If messages are arriving on your Junk Email folder, they are already considered "blocked" and adding the From address of those messages to the Blocked Sender list won't help in any regard. Messages delivered to the Junk Email folder will automatically delete after 10 to 30 days, so why worry about them? You can, every few days to a week, review whaat's in that folder by looking only at the From address and subject. You won't see anything very offensive that way and you can mark any falsely misfiles messages as not junk so you'll receive them in the future. Everything else, ignore and it will go away on its own.
