They only delete messages that have a virus. All others are marked with the prefix SPAM and I apply the script to put them into the SPAM folder so I can review them before trashing. However I could just as easily put them into the Trash to begin with and then review them daily as I have been. That probably would be the best idea. I do not want all messages automatically blocked simply because something may trigger their blocker for often I see messages that are legit and they are marked incorrectly as SPAM. regards, doug >Doug McAdam wrote: > >>You see I have Emailer programmed to put all SPAM emails into a folder >>marked SPAM and then I can review this Folder and make sure it does not >>have non-spam mail in it.
