2008-09-26 Thread Nick
I'm using Thunderbird 2.0.0.17. For the most part it functions well however when it comes to the junk filter, not so good. It keeps putting legitimate email (some from important clients) in the junk mail folder. No matter how many times I mark it as not junk and making sure their email address

The Junk mail feature in Thunderbird is less than optimal. That said, two things I can recommend: 1. add the users address to your address book 2. Use the message filters for your clients to have their emails automatically go to a subfolder If those don't work you may wish to reset the junk
