Junk Mail

[Guest]

My junk folder always fills up regularly, as my email address has been sold on but don't want to create a fresh one.

It's not such a problem to delete and block this rubbish, which I have been doing for a considerable time.

 

Just curious when using a free email service such as hotmail. Do any of the more cognoscenti board members have any idea how long I can keep blocking, is this just limitless ?

Well, for me, as a simple user who decries Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and the other myriad of 'services' that sell your email address to anyone with a dollar, I find that Gmail does the best job of auto deleting junk mail, I've only ever found one email in the junk that shouldn't be there.

 

So I just let Gmail do it's thing. As to how long can this go on? Infinity at present, though more accurately, unless Gmail changes their policy, until you die and your account becomes inactive.
