filters
The only reason I look at my spam folder is to make sure no "legit" mail has wound up there. To make this more efficient, I have created a number of filters based on the domain names from spam messages, with the instruction to send messages from those domains to the trash. However, messages that should have been caught by these filters keep ending up in my spam folder. I want to have them bypass the spam folder, and just go directly to the trash, so that I don't have to wade through as many messages when checking to see if any are "real."
Hi there. As a general rule, filters get applied to emails going to Inbox, not Spam. For any emails caught by the spam filter (going to Spam), please keep marking them as Not Spam. In case you need additional help or have questions, we are available at help.aol.com
