  • Why does Hotmail treat this forum like a porn site?

    Half of the messages I get from the forum or anybody on it end up in my spam folder. This, even though I have added the return address to my trusted list.

    Also, when I open a message from the Forum Hotmail tells me it is suspicious and I have to approve opening it twice.

    This is just a minor annoyance, but I would still like to fix it. Anybody know how?

      I don't have that problem at all. I added it to my trusted sender list and it has been fine ever since.

      My problem is companies who have a different prefix to their emails for every email they send and I can never add tgem cause the email is always different.

          Hi DGXSER,
          I can't speak to hotmail's methodology but Sasktel shunts dubious e-mails to a junk e-mail folder. You gotta read the titles to trash them and I swear that although I have never sent for nostrums to increase the size of my wang or bought a fake Rolex, still the offers keep coming.

                          I can't get my mom to leace AOL... She insists on using them, not only for email, but also as a browser!

                          If you use Outlook on your PC for email, then just use POP3 access to get to your hotmail account, you wouldn't have to deal with all that mess. You could even use the RSS feeds and get notificaitons of all new threads.

                            Actually if you use hotmail, there is a plugin that works better than the POP3 access, much smoother.
