That's Keyword: SPAM FOLDER. Only works for people who have "created" the Spam folder, which I think requires signing on with Windows AOL. > A worse situation is that Emailer doesn't see the spam folder at all, > raising the possibility that legitimate mail will be sent into obscurity > - apparently undelivered. > > Mail sent by me to my wife's account has fallen into this swamp.

Best way to avoid mail going into the Spam folder is to add the senders to your Address Book. The entire feature can be turned off, but currently only with Windows AOL. I have information about this feature at <http://members.aol.com/adamkb/aol/mailfaq/#mail_controls>. > I discovered this problem almost by accident while configurating a test > of PowerMail as a potential replacement for CE, using AOL's new IMAP > access.

Entourage is quite capable of applying filters to IMAP folders. -- Adam Bailey | Chicago, Illinois [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Finger/Web for PGP & S/MIME [EMAIL PROTECTED] | http://www.lull.org/adam/ ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
