I am usuing Outlook Express as my mail client and I use a exchange mail server.
The problem is I am trying to send a mail from a shell script from a linux machine as root user. The mail which gets generated gets into my Junk folder in Outlook. On what basis is a mail moved to Junk or Spam. How to override the settings in my case?

The address has 3 digits at the end. everytime one is blocked they change a digit and get through again!

I have looked for unsubscribe in the email there isn’t one that I can choose. I have tried to send reply telling them to stop sending, but it get returned because the return email address is not one that can be replied to. I use MSN, is this something that is unavoidable with this mail server? How do I contact them to tell them I’d like to report the unwanted email. My concern is my teenage daughter sometimes uses my account and I don’t want her to have access to any of it.

I get about 15-20 not so nice kind of email in my bulk every day. I always just delete them, and never open them. I really want them to go away, any suggestions? I am afraid to open them in case of a virus or something. The computer I use is also used for my husband’s business stuff, so I really don’t want to take any chances of messing things up. any real help would be greatly appreciated.

Think about it….if we all hit ‘reply’ and and ask for more information would the spammers not be overwhelmed with emails such that they would not be able to filter their marks from the ‘reply spam’.
That is the conventional wisdom, however, I never respond to spam yet I still get tons of spam. Maybe we need to rethink that strategy?

It only seems to care if the mail comes from a known bad address, and that’s pretty easy to spoof. The virus scanner picks up the really harmful ones OK but the endless v!@gr# offers do annoy me. Any way to beef it up? It’s an office system and I’m not about to change platform…

We have Microsoft Outlook Express and recieve about 30 unsolicited messages everyday, mostly about making money.

I received an email from mailer at yahoo. Apparently my email address is being used by someone to send spam. The email noted that a firewall had detected my email as spam. The address it was sent to is unknown to me. Please help!
