Thank you so much

My GAWD! Thank you. I wanted to slap him.

Thank you for the time stamp!

Thank you so much 🤣🤣

not helping even after 4:18

so how do i block the spam on hotmail, my inbox 99% spam it so frustrating?????????????????????????????

I would never have guessed Juno was still in business.

yeah...he didn't quiet say that the SPAM will just bypass your inbox and go into your junkmail. He made it seem like it will not reach any of your inboxes at all

Which is fucking USELESS

@@AcidTechnoMan5000 How is that useless, genius ? Please explain.

@@ccdogpark I'm thinking what they meant is if it's spam, then why do we need to see it at all. So much of it is quite obvious.

Its pretty useless cause you actually may have some newsletters "spamming" your legit inbox that you prefer to stay in the junk mail folder and then you have to scroll trough 100s of spam mails. they should use Ai to filter spam out. it can't be so hard... or make their rules work for the junkmail for hotmail. they don't seem to wanna fight spam in any way!

Same

How did you stop it?

@@SlugKa I am interested too :D

@@SlugKa you get alot of spams still????

If you still have this issue and still using your old email address there is one thing you can do. If you got a Gmail account you add your existing AOL email account to it in the settings and from then you receive emails addressed to your AOL in your Gmail and Gmail does very good job with filtering junk out. You'll still receive junk on AOL but just don't access it there so you won't see it. Also all your folders, emails, contacts will be synced to Gmail. I had a the same issues with my old Hotmail and done this and works perfectly.

If you are doing this on mobile try deleting the mail app then downloading it again I don’t know how this works for other phones but it might work if you have an iPhone

If they are being filtered to your spam folder automatically then it is working right. Just stop looking in your spam folder and ignore them. There's nothing more to do.

That's all you can do. Unsub from the legit ones, delete anything else. Hopefully at least some of it goes to your junk folder and not your inbox.

Well I’m getting 15-50 spam a day using gmail.. that’s why I’m looking for a solution.

Unless the email server is going to block them, you can't. You either have to live with the spam that gets through, or switch to a better ISP.

Hotmail is pretty trash when it comes to spam

There are settings in hotmail that say - ‘exclusive filter’ which means it only lets in only what I designate as ‘safe’. Means I have to look in junk from prospective new clients. But I know my inbox has only things I want to see

The hotmail interface needs to be completely redone.

My gmail account keeps crashing - any tips

Just because it doesn't go to the spam folder, doesn't mean that the spam went through

@jeff1982 you are so correct!!! I’ve been having this spam issue for years!! I’ve created rules and blocked. Nothing seems to work. More will come and I have to keep ruling and blocking. SMH!!

The filtering should work for both, since both should be in sync. Make sure you are using Messages in iCloud.

Hard to know what your problem could be. For troubleshooting it is best to get firsthand help from an expert.

Impossible for me to say. Do you mean in your inbox? Just delete them and move on.

It is a mix. If a server is identified as being used for massive spam email, it will be blacklisted and the messages will just be rejected from the email service like Gmail. But otherwise they go to your spam folder in case there is a false positive.

Are you using Rules or Junk filters in the Mail app on your Mac? That would be why. No way to do that on an iPhone. You need to rely on the server to do the filtering. See what options you have available with your service.

By "decades", it would only be back to 2000, when iTools was released, at the latest. I still have an old .Mac address for that reason. So really we're talking 22 years.

Possibly. You won't know unless you try. You could also ask your current host about better spam filter options.

Don’t be scared man I know it sucks but even I don’t know what to do I’ll let you know when I do

Maybe. How many per day?

Not sure what you are asking. You can add and remove accounts as you like. If you don't want an account there anymore, remove it.

You can do it however you like. Continue to look at all three accounts, but you'll need to deal with the good and bad from all three. Or you can move toward eliminating one or more. You can always do a monthly check on the web with an old account to make sure you didn't miss anything. it is up to you how you handle it.

The Gmail app is for Gmail. I don't think you can use the Gmail app to access non-Gmail email. The idea is the filter needs to be on the server, not on your client app.

It already does. Spam only lives in there for 30 days. No way to shorten it, but no need to either. 30 days gives you time to check occasionally when someone asks if you "got that email I sent you" to see if it is in there. But 30 days is short enough so it won't accumulate too much. No need to deal with it manually at all.

It may, but it could create more problems than it solves. Go to your website email service and see if you can set up spam controls there. Or, move it to a server that can.

It may help, but probably not as good. Plus you'll still have all of the other problems.

Just add a Gmail filter to send anything with that company name in the text to spam.

Older iCloud email accounts would have used @me.com or @mac.com. They are the same as @icloud.com today.

Yes, Delete them. You are giving them too much of your time. Press the Delete key on your keyboard and move on. But if you do see an "unsubscribe" then try it. A lot of times it will work with just that one click.

Basically so I can check all emails addresses within GMail and not use outlook

Not sure what you are trying to do, but it sounds like you want to forward all of your email to your gmail account? I suppose just do that. Otherwise, maybe seek help from a Gmail expert.

same here

Try Protonmail: no spam!

Watch the video. Blocking doesn't work as they just use random fake email addresses anyway.

Just delete them and move on. Were they the same message, or similar? Should be easy to search and delete them all then.

Yes that definitely is a waste of time, unless it is a legit company that is just annoying.

Basic iCloud is free with 5GB of space. With that you can sync things like Notes, Calendar, Reminders, Contacts, bookmarks, etc. And also use iCloud email. But for a few dollars a month you can get more space and features. support.apple.com/en-us/HT201238

Changing your email address every year would be problematic. Never mind about people who email you, think about all of your accounts where you use your email as your ID.

Check out HEY email.

@@macmost Hi there. I was actually just wondering myself, but is there any possible way at all to completely stop having spam e-mails being sent to your e-mail addresses and accounts? I just thought of asking in case if it was ever possible or something somehow. At one of my e-mail accounts that I have, I've been receiving a lot of spam and junk mail now for the past several months already and it seems to be happening just about every single day too. I'm even receiving spam e-mails from e-mail addresses that I already have blocked even though they're still being sent to me somehow. My e-mail account shouldn't have been hacked or anything though because if it ever was, I would probably know by now already since I probably wouldn't be able to sign into it or something, so I know it's not my actual account or anything and there shouldn't be anything wrong with it either. There's also nothing strange being sent from my e-mail address and my e-mail account since I check it every day and there's nothing out of the ordinary except for the spam e-mails I've been receiving in my junk folder.

What's your concern. An advantage of using a big provider is they can filter and blacklist spam easier. That's my point here. Why not use them? If you like you can even bring your own domain name to iCloud or Gmail.

I wish I knew the answer to that! It is really up to the phone providers to do that. They are getting better, but so are the spammers. Check your provider's site as they may have some free tools you can use. I know AT&T does.

There is no spam SMS or phone calls in Europe AT ALL. Why? Because it’s illegal! Write a letter to your congressman or move to Europe! (And get a free university education and healthcare, while you’re at it!)

Depends on how the other person is set up. For most people. there shouldn't be any difference.

Not sure what you mean. If you get a new Apple email address today, it is @iCloud.com. Only older addresses would be @me.com.

The purpose of that alias is to have the ability to dump it if needed. I would make a new alias and, and slow covert your accounts to said new one, then delete the alias that's getting all the Spam.

Forwarded it? There's no safety issue here, but whomever your forwarded spam to may be mad at you.

@@macmost it was my mom and she’s not mad I was checking it out through her and she is the one who told me it was spam

Currently I use a Sony a6100 connected to an Elgato Cam Link 4K.

How much is "tons" exactly? And do you mean spam in your inbox, or spam in your junk folder? How do you know that it wouldn't be 10x or 100x if it wasn't for Apple's serves blocking a lot of it?

Thank you

Which may not help his view count and I'm sure thats why he does it, for $$

That sounds like an issue with his email provider, not the phone. If the provider has a web interface, I'd have him go onto that on a computer and delete the email from there.

@@macmost ok itell him that thanks

How, exactly, did you block this address? Are you sure the email is coming "from" the same address?

Hey man thanks for reaching out to me. Ok first i went to my settings and move to mail and then move blocked sender to trash and on each message i click to the name and turn blue and again I click the blue like and i blocked them from there !! Thank you

@@kamiloj7407 Not sure what you are describing there, but my first guess is that they are not sending from the same address each time.

@@macmost i have a doubt. I receive spam from nonsense accounts, but recently, those same accounts now also show my own email in them. For example, a spma email about a roofing quote used to be : jfjdksie67@azure.app or something, but now that it is k72737@morenonsense(myemailadress).com Why does this happen? It started after I started blocking some pf those nonsense accounts. It it dangerous for my email to be included? It is spoofing or a way for them to get through the filters?? Please, I wold appreciate the help

@@galletasist When a spammer sends an email, they can use anything they want as the "from" address, in including the same address they are sending TO. It means nothing. Just another way to get past any rules or filters you have set up since you are unlikely to block yourself.

same here its annoying idk what to do

me too

Felipe M. How to get rid of

Same:(

Gmail has more features, but iCloud is definitely better from a privacy standpoint.

Probably because it was useless. People would want to use it for spam, I'd imagine, but the reply-to email addresses are almost always fake anyway. And for legit subscription email, the unsubscribe link is the way to go, not a bounce.

If they are going to your Junk box then the email server is doing its job. No need to ever empty it or even look in there unless you suspect you are missing something and what to check for a false positive. In Mail, Settings, Accounts, (select account), Mailbox Behaviors you can set the Junk mail to delete automatically.

@@macmost Gary, anyway on the mail app iOS to get it to automatically delete email in the junk folder instead of showing unread and giving a count? Also anyway of stopping any notifications for junk mail?, when I go to junk mail folder to empty it, it starts kicking out notifications on my iPhone.

@@JimFantazzia I don't think there is any setting in iOS Mail for that. But it could be on your server -- whatever you are using for email. Like if you use Gmail, try going to the Gmail site and look at the settings there.

I know, right. That was painful and a waste of time.
