I run my own mail server. I have it configured to train its filter on
all of the mail that I move into the spam folder. Anything automatically
placed in the spam folder and later moved out of it manually is
automatically trained as legitimate mail.
I would expect commercial mail providers to do the same, probably in
more sophisticated ways.

Hey, this certainly sounds like a very nifty and helpful tip. I'll
totally give this a try. I will admit though, sometimes there is the
occasional email that truly should belong in your inbox,so this is
something to just thoroughly go through it at first. Maybe a few a day
should work out, that way nobody needs to enslave themselves to the
task. Anyway, hopefully this also finds you well.
Warm and sincere regards,
Denise Barajas

Hi all,
I’m posting this to the list because it was something I only just
learned about, and it has turned out to be very handy.
Apple has an email address that you can use to report junk mail. All
you have to do is forward the offending message to ab...@icloud.com.
I was skeptical of whether this would work, but it really does.
Forwarding these messages has taken me down from about 250 junk mails
a day, to one, if that. When you’re getting as much junk mail as I
was, it’s kind of a pain to have to forward every message, but it
really does work. It was only a matter of a few days before my junk
mail started dropping off dramatically.
As I said, I didn’t know about this until I started googling what to
do about excessive junk mail, so I thought there might be others here
would benefit as well.
Cheers,
Donna
