    I dread to think how many wems I may of missed

    I'm with Virgin and I check my mails through Windows Live/Explorer,

    I've only just found out that if Virgin thinks mail is spam it goes to the spam folder on Virgins email and doesn't go through to Windows Live/Explorer at all

    totally sucks,

    now I make a point of logging onto Virgin to check for spam there and have found a few wems I would of missed *rolls eyes*

    damn Virgin :rotfl:

    Don't use your ISP provided e-mail address, get gmail and/or hotmail ones as you keep them if you switch ISP

    I am with virgin and only found out earlier this year that they had an auto delete suspected spam 'feature' active on my account!
    So i never even knew about the emails,
    now turned it off,so i can decide what is spam, but i did wonder if i had missed anything good.
    I use spamfighter now with outlook but my Grants wem still flagged as spam!
