[Macpartners] Apple Mail Junk Email

[Bronwen J Heuer]

I have received 2 junk email messages in the month of April — April 2 to be exact.  They appear in both my Entourage mail junk email (Entourage is my preferred email program) and in my Apple Mail (4.5).  They were junk, the usual junk but nothing inordinate seems to be arriving.  It seems as if I get about two junk email items a month and they appear to be things I see in my regular mail, like duplications.  I have Junk mail disabled.

I hope some solution is found to this strangeness, Steve.  In March, I believe, my the spamscreening was letting all sorts of junk through and daily I was registering domains that I wanted screeened.

It’s been quiet for a while.

Any ideas on why suddenly a few different items are showing up in my Junk E-Mail folder - when I don't have Junk Email Enabled?  (Apple Mail v. 5.2 (1257))

The items don't have any consistency.  Some are internal to MIT, some from the Outside.

I've gone into Preferences/Email - Re-enabled Junk Email, Reset it, then Un-enabled it to see if that would reset it but I'm still getting a random message in the Junk Email Folder.

The only thing I changed recently was Preferences/Viewing/Use Classic Layout - which shouldn't affect items being identified as Junk Mail.

strangeness….
