Spam emails
In just the last few weeks, I have started receiving HUNDREDS of spam emails every day. Up until that time, I hardly ever received any. It does no good to mark them spam. What is going on with Hughes...
Good morning folks,
Thank you for your continued feedback, I'm sending these up to management who is keeping an eye on all this. They've also issued an official response:

Marking messages as SPAM also helps improve the filtering algorithms. Simply click the checkbox next to any SPAM messages and then click the shield icon in the upper right corner of the menu bar.Please let us know if you're seeing any improvement now, there have been some changes recently.

Good morning Mudkat514,
Thanks for chiming in, please be sure you're marking these e-mails as spam whenever you can as this helps our e-mail admins address this issue.

The issue with my spam folder showing 141 entries still exsists, any suggestions Liz?
Spam is going into the spam folder instead of your inbox?

no I am saying my spam folder is empty, as the image I posted sez, 'Your Junk folder is empty' but to the left, the list of folders shows 141 emails still in the folder

Just wondering if when the mail accounts were moved, the new spam filter was set up for a different folder with a new name. For example, the old folder being named "Junk" and the new one named "Spam". If the webmail client pointed to two different places it might also cause something like this.
