Junk Mail

I keep getting the following email. It is Spam/Junk. It comes daily from different addresses so marking it as Junk doesn't work. Bouncing it back doesn't work - the address is not real apparently. How can I stop it? Has anyone else started getting these recently. This is the first series of this I have ever gotten and the only thing I am getting. Email below:

One way to deal with it would be to set up a filter to delete any mail that had contents like this one.
For example, if you created a filter that deleted any mail that had the words "polskich ktrzy" in the message, you could be fairly confident you wouldn't lose anything important.
This assumes that the contents of the mail is actual text and not an image of text.

  • Thunderbird fails to send email when "Scan email for junk mail" option is checked in Server Admin

    I have 2 clients that need to send mail through my server, one Mac and one Windows. The Mac uses apple mail and the Windows machine uses Thunderbird.
    Apple Mail will send fine, it is set up for "Use Default ports 25, 465, 587" and "Use SSL" and "Authentication: MD5 Challenge-response".
    Thunderbird refuses to send and I don't even see any errors showing up in the Console on the OS X server under smtpd entries.
    If I uncheck the "Scan email for junk mail" option on the server, then Thunderbird will send fine.
    Thunderbird is set up as: "smtp port 587 (default)" "connection security: STARTTLS" "Authentication method: Encrypted Password"
    May or may not be relevant: I use virtual domains as well as aliases.
    Server: Mac OS X Server version 10.5.8

    Solved it, looks like maybe the smtpd settings for sasl authentication may not have been correct. I followed everything in http://osx.topicdesk.com/content/view/38/41/ the "Frontline Spam Defense for OS X server" guide and now can send mail just fine from Thunderbird Winodws and from Apple Mail.

  • How can I migrate my junk-mail settings from one Mac to another?

    I would like to move my junk mail settings from one Mac to another. I found this article (https://kb.siteground.com/how_to_synchronize_the_junk_email_settings_in_mac_mail /), but can't locate the file indicated in the article, so I suspect that the article is out of date (though it's not dated).
    Both machines - MacOS 10.9.5; Mail 7.3.
    Any insights much appreciated!
    Best,
    Doug

    Make your user library visible and see if you can find it.
    Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder.  Select Library.

  • Mail going to the Junk Mail folder but not marked as Junk Mail

    Hi,
    Hopefully someone can help me. It's something I had done but I don't know what I have done. All of a sudden all my emails from eBay are going directly to my Junk Mail folder, although when I try to click them as 'Not Junk' (Thumbs Up) they are not even selected as Junk Mail and I can still select them to be Junk Mail.
    At the moment I'm just dragging them back into the correct folder but it still keeps happening. (I sell a lot on eBay so it's happening quite often).
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi Corey,

  • Classified junk mail intermittently not moving to junk folder

    Hello,
    I am running Thunderbird 31.3.0 and all of a sudden the junk mail (which is classified and marked) is not being moved to the junk mail folder intermittently on some of the IMAP accounts setup on Thunderbird.
    Again, this problem only intermittently occurs but it seems to happen on the same couple of email accounts. The junk mail is marked and stays in the inbox but does not automatically move to the junk folder. If I unmark one in the inbox and remark it - it moves automatically. if I restart Thunderbird, all newly received junk moves as expected for a time until the problem intermittently start occurring again.

    One last thing to try:

  • Junk Mail won't move to Junk folder after training+switching to automatic

    After training for months, I switched my preferences to automatic and now my existing junk mail doesn't move to the junk folder.
    Dual 2 GHz PowerPC G5   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    Same problem here - also using an IMAP account. Junk mail is labeled correctly but does not move automatically to the junk folder even though the option to do that is enabled in preferences.

  • Junk mail not automatically moved to Junk folder

    Hello.
    I'm using an IMAP account and have configured Mail to move junk mail to the chosen junk mail folder (junk is not filtered on the server but on my client). Since the junk mail filter is still learning sometimes junk mail is not detected and still goes to the inbox. That's okay.
    If I then select that message it is somehow miraculously detected and marked as junk. However, it is not automatically moved to the junk folder but remains in the inbox marked as junk?
    Is this desired behaviour? Why is the mail not automatically moved to the junk folder, like it is when I manually mark a mail as junk?
    Thanks in advance

    I just happened to notice that even mail that is automatically marked as spam/junk remains in my inbox. So I open the inbox folder and there is message that is marked as junk. Only when I manually reset and set the junk status is the message moved to the junk folder.
    This seems to be the case in an IMAP acount where all folders (sent, drafts, spam, etc.) are subfolders of the actual inbox folder.
    Is anyone else experiencing this behaviour?
    Thanks in advance

  • Why isn't junk mail going into its folder

    I get a lot of spam and a few weeks ago, it went into my junk folder which pulled if off my iphone and ipad. Now the junk mail just stays in the inbox.
    What is causing that or this?
    Can I fix it?

    Try rebuilding your mailboxes ...

  • Urgent help needed with un-removable junk mail that froze Mail!!

    Urgent help needed with un-removable junk mail that froze Mail?
    I had 7 junk mails come in this morning, 5 went straight to junk and 2 more I junked.
    When I clicked on the Junk folder to empty it, it froze Mail and I can't click on anything, I had to force quit Mail and re-open it. When it re-opens the Junk folder is selected and it is froze, I can't do anything.
    I repaired permissions, it did nothing.
    I re-booted my computer, on opening Mail the In folder was selected, when I selected Junk, again, it locks up Mail and I can't select them to delete them?
    Anyone know how I can delete these Junk mails from my Junk folder without having to open Mail to do it as it would appear this will be the only solution to the problem.

    Hi Nigel
    If you hold the Shift key when opening the mail app, it will start up without any folders selected & no emails showing. Hopefully this will enable you to start Mail ok.
    Then from the Mail menus - choose Mailbox-Erase Junk Mail . The problem mail should now be in the trash. If there's nothing you want to retain from the Trash, you should now choose Mailbox- Erase Deleted Messages....
    If you need to double-check the Trash for anything you might want to retain, then view the Trash folder first, before using Erase Junk Mail & move anything you wish to keep to another folder.
    The shift key starts Mail in a sort of Safe mode.

    hi
    you have to change the config.xml to allow the server accept relay mails from your host machine from which you are sendign the mail ...
    ie
    change
    <mailet match="RemoteAddrNotInNetwork=127.0.0.1" class="ToProcessor">
    <processor> relay-denied </processor>
    <notice>550 - Requested action not taken: relaying denied</notice>
    </mailet>
    add few more ips (your network / subnet ip)
    so that it accpets mails from that machine to be relayed ...
    you can also change the smtp autheriZation part and do that ...
    any one is enough ..
    Regards
    Venkat

  • Various E Mail problems: Junk Mail, Log Off, etc

    I am having various and frustrating problems that are intermittant.
    I have two incoming e mail accounts, one is IMAP and one is POP.
    1. Junk Mail. After having reset my junk mail settings as advised on this site just a few days ago, I am continuing to experience this problem. Messages that the systems "knows" is Junk Mail do NOT go to Junk Mail folder, but to the regular In box. It knows they are Junk Mail because the Tab for changing the message at top of screen says "Not Junk", which means it thinks it is JUNK. They why won't it go into Junk Mail folder?
    2. When I try to delete these messages one by one in In box, the computer "freezes" and takes forever to delete the messages. The In box counter on left hand side of the screen does not decrease as I delete messages, but takes a long time (minutes) to catch up with the deletions.
    3. When receiving certain e mail from specific recipients, the system intermittantly says "message not dowloaded from server, you need to take this account on line". Well. it IS online! Again, this does not happen all the time, but often enough and from the same e mail recipients) that it is very frustrating.
    4. Oftentimes when I try to shut down, I get the dreaded spinning color wheel, only to have to force quit. This is a lengthy process, and then I lose all of the deletions that I have tried to make to my Inbox.
    Are all of these problems somehow related? Cumulatively, they are very frustrating. I never had these kinds of issues with Windows Mail apps. Uuughh!
    Thanks for reading and any assistance.

    There appears to be a problem with the index.
    Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
    The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
    After having fixed all the filesystem issues, if any, and ensuring that there’s enough space available on the startup disk (a few GB, plus the space needed to make a backup copy of the Mail folder), try this:
    1. Quit Mail if it’s running.
    2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Mail/. Make a backup copy of this folder, just in case something goes wrong, e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down. This is where all your mail is locally stored.
    3. Locate Envelope Index and move it to the Trash. If you see any other “Envelope Index”-named file there, delete it as well.
    4. Move the “IMAP-” account folder to the Trash. Note that you can do this with IMAP-type accounts because they store mail on the server and Mail can easily re-create them. DON’T trash any “POP-” account folders, as that would cause all mail stored there to be lost.
    5. Open Mail. It will tell you that your mail needs to be “imported”. Click Continue and Mail will proceed to re-create Envelope Index — Mail says it’s “importing”, but it just re-creates the index if the mailboxes are already in Mail 2.x format.
    6. As a side effect of having removed the IMAP account folder, that accounts may be in an “offline” state now. Do Mailbox > Go Online to bring it back online.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. That is, ~/Library is the Library folder within the user’s home folder, i.e. /Users/username/Library.
    <hr>
    If the problem persists, what are your Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors > Junk settings, particularly for the IMAP account?
    Also, what have you done to “reset [your] junk mail settings as advised on this site”? This is what I’d suggest:
    1. Go to Preferences > Junk Mail, disable junk mail filtering, then enable it again. This resets the rule that governs what the junk filter does.
    2. Choose either Training or Automatic mode (it doesn’t matter) and leave the other options checked. Click Advanced to see how the junk filter rule is defined now if you want, but don’t touch anything there.
    3. Reset the junk filter database (Preferences > Junk Mail > Reset).
    4. Open Window > Previous Recipients and get rid of any addresses that you don’t want Mail to treat as legit.

  • Cannot delete item from junk mail folder in iPad?

    Some items cannot be deleted from junk mail folder on iPad 2. It will not move to trash.

    Have you tried swiping across the message in the preview pane when you open the junk folder instead of opening the email and trying to use the trash can icon?
    If that will not work either, try rebooting your iPad and then see if you can delete the junk mail.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

  • Junk Mail Filtering - is it me or is it just rubbish?

    Apologies if this has been posted elsewhere, but didn't have the patience to wade through all the threads. Hopefully someone can help...
    Frankly, I think the filtering on Mail (using 3.5 with OSX 10.5.6) is hopeless. Simply put, I've tried configuring it every which way in Preferences but the same issues persist. The main one being that when I configure to "exclude" those in my address book and/or previous recipients list from junk mail filtering ...people in my address book (SPECIFICALLY ME) still end up in the junk mail folder.
    I have 2 accounts: Mail.com (POP3) and Gmail (IMAP) and I use an iPhone for mobile access. And I have a work email. All three are in my address card in Address Book.
    Yet whenever I send myself (or anyone else) an email -- either from work or from my iPhone or even from within Mail -- it still ends up in the junk mail folder.
    I think the problem is that Mail's filtering doesn't look at email addresses. It must look at how the name is set up??? i.e., LAST FIRST or FIRST LAST, etc. and when any of these don't match up it puts it into junk mail folder????
    It just seems rubbish to me. Outlook had much more sophisticated filtering options\rule set up.
    Anyone got any ideas on how to solve this? Thanks.

    If you have multiple email addresses in your card in Address Book, which messages are going to Junk, and what email address was used?
    All three emails go to junk. My work to either personal address. Gmail to Mail and Mail to Gmail emails all go to junk
    Have you tried setting up the Junk filter so that:
    If any of the following conditions are met:
    *Sender is not in my Address Book*
    *Sender is not in my Previous Recipients*
    Message is Junk Mail
    Perform the following actions:
    *Move message to mailbox: (Junk mailbox On My Mac)*
    Yep. Tried that. Still didn't work. Even tried ticking "not junk" on each of the several tests I've sent myself -- and then re-sent more tests, which still ended up in junk????
    As I said, I've tried virtually every possible configuration of boxes ticked and unticked and nothing...
    My latest setting (using your advanced rules above) were:
    Enable Junk Mail - ticked
    When Junk Mail arrives - 'perform custom actions'
    Msgs Exempt - In address book and previous recipients both ticked. Use my full name unticked
    Trust ISP headers - unticked
    Filter before applying rules - have tried this both ticked and unticked... same result
    Thanks,
    The Smoking Man
    PS - Should add that when others send me email to the Gmail or Mail accounts they properly go to inbox, not junk. It's just when I send myself something (anything, really)...

  • I am having a problem with mail. In my junk mail folder I have two messages which I drag to trash and empty. Within a few minutes the messages are back in junk mail folder

    I am having a problem with mail.  I am attempting to trash junk mail. Each time I do this and a while later I find the junk mail has not been discarded and is back in junk mil folder.

  • Junk mail filter doesn't work all the time

    Why doesn't the Junk mail filter work all the time? I click on mail like from Best Buy or Omni Hotels to go into junk mail but hardly any of their mail goes into Junk. Other sites go directly to Junk. If I click on a Best Buy mail to indicate it's Junk, shouldn't that work 100% of the time forever and ever?

    The Junk filter is based on an analysis of the content of the message. It ignores the sender. (Filtering based on the sender is an ineffective way of dealing with true spam, since spammers use constantly-changing spoofed addresses.)
    If you don't want mail from a legitimate sender like Best Buy, unsubscribe from their ads. If that doesn't work, make a Rule to delete or move the messages.

  • Help.  My junk mail filter is not working in Yosemite.

    AAny suggestions for getting junk mail filters to work?

    Well, after the latest update to Yosemite (version 10.10.2 (14C109)) Junk Filters seem to be working again.  In the latest update I did not see mention of changes to Mail filters but i could have missed a note from Apple.
    One caution, I have had to double check the junk mail folder a bit because the Junk Mail filter has restarted as if from the beginning.  That is it has to relearn everything.
