Dear Mary Ellen, My ISP has a program called SpamAssassin. When it thinks a message emailed to me might be spam, it puts it into a folder called "graymail." If I want to, I can look at the messages in that folder and if I want to make sure messages from a particular sender are not put into the graymail folder, I can "whitelist them. The opposite works, too. If I receive a message which should have been caught by SpamAssassin, I can "blacklist" it so I don't receive any messages from that sender.
The nice thing for BN users is the program will work with it because the software is on the ISP's system, not yours. Terri Pannett, Amateur Radio call sign KF6CA.
