My wife and I have separate SM email accounts, using Time Warner

would cause this, and how do I fix her account to not get spam?
There are various estimates of the amount of mail traffic that is SPAM.
They are all over fifty percent. In the early days we tried to filter
out SPAM. But you will always be in reactive mode.
Setting the junk flag and then deleting does train SM to set the flag
for you. Then go to Tools > Delete mail marked as junk.
That last step may or may not be helpful; for me it's a waste of time.
Go to Edit | Preferences | Mail & Newsgroups | Junk & Suspect Mail
If you've enabled the setting
[x] When I mark messages as Junk:
() move them to the account's "Junk" folder
then as soon as you mark them, they're gone. No need to clean up the
folder.
You do want to get rid of the junk because otherwise it will clog up the
database if it gets too big. From time to time it is a good idea to
delete all the junk, then empty the trash and compact the folders.
