I've had two WEM's now where the headers have been re ones. As in no Congratulations or You Are a Winner....just sent as a reply to my original mail/ competition answer0

I use googlemail, and two out of my four wems have gone into the spam folder. So now I have to sift through that too !0

I have the same problem Jadeytee & I did used to check them all. Unfortunately, there's far too many to go through now so I just delete the majority then worry that I've missed a WEM :rolleyes:0

You can quite often tell the spam by looking at who sent it. Most circulars have newsletter, offers or other generic terms in them.
I get a lot of emails everyday and I tend to have an unsubscribe afternoon on Fridays as I get home from work a bit quicker.
I also have a spare email account for the 'subscribe to newsletter' comps. I just delete the whole account and make a new one if it gets over spammed!
I've had a few WEM's into my spam box so always check that daily just in case.0 -
The Wems I have received, I think it has been 2 so far, they were a personal email from an actual person form the company who was promoting the competition telling my I had one. So they have been pretty obvious to spot. I didnt realise about the sky ones being as newsletters though . Im going to check the ones ive had in the past.
Also I get alot of spam too, I get on average around 120 emails a day, most are rubbish in my spam box.Comping again0 -

My eyes can usually spot a WEM in a folder full of junk. They kinda jump out at you.Thanks to everyone who posts comps, I love winning prizes big and small
