    Also note this.....
    Unroll.me unsubscribes you by following a sender's unsubscribe instructions 24 hours after you've unsubscribed. As a backup, we automatically trash all future emails you'll receive from that sender. This is to ensure that if the unsubscribe request fails for some reason, you'll still never receive an email from that sender.

    So if you Unsubscribe and you then receive a WEM from that company you Unsubscribed from the email will go direct to your "TRASH" folder.
    So best to either ........ click on the "resubscribe" link after 24 hours have passed ....... or set up email filters to pick up words such as "winner, congratulations..... etc" and direct those messages to your Inbox

    I kind of thought this was not quite right. Wished I had looked into this in much more detail before I subscribed to unrollme!

    You are quite right Daza. I download my mail to Thunderbird. I have just checked my Gmail bin and there is mail in there that has not been sent to Thunderbird, it has gone straight to the bin. :mad:

    Click the little "Cog" icon top right and select "SETTINGS"
    select "FILTERS" from the menu on left hand side
    click "ADD" then select a Filter Name - in the Email Body box select your keyword you wish it to search for (IE - winner) then select which folder you wish that email to be sent to .... click SAVE

    Do this for every keyword you wish it to search for

    Obviously so, as when you create an account it asks for your email addy & password so it can gain access to your emails to look for subscriptions

    I never used it so wouldn't know - surprised people would be happy to give their login details though :eek:
    Thanks to all posters :A
