Hi all i as just wondering how do you know if an email is a winning one ? as even though i carefully say no to all future correspondence i seem to still get a lot of junk? Just wondering if there was a quick way to scan them? xx:)

Basically....They usually..(although not always) start with the words Congratulations...or you are a winner.
Fingers crossed you get some soon.0 -
There was a really good thread on here a while ago about how to filter your emails to recognise and highlight winning emails. It's not a completely fail safe method but it's worked for me on many occasions. I'll try to find it.
EDIT:
Here it is.
Scroll down to see instructions for how to set up filters.
I love opening my emails to see a starred message!Most recent wins: IPad, Jamie Magazine yearbook, Links of London friendship bracelet, Baumatic ice cream machine! :j0 -

lphillips25, I find that the ones in capitals are usually scams, e.g 'CONGRATULATIONS, (your email address) YOU HAVE WON $75000000!
Yeah, they tend to be scams, also look out for bad grammar. good luck for the future! x0
