Blocking junk mail from iCloud.me

How do I stop junk mail from coming to my me.com email?

I can't filter junk using any iCloud rules. There's no option under those rules where you can say if a message is marked as junk then do X. Do you actually have the ability to filter junk from the web interface?

How do I block junk mail from going to my iPhone and iPad?

I blocked a ton of emails from Outlook on my work PC but they still come to my iPhone and iPad. The block on my PC did the job but for some reason, my phone and ipad cannot tell the difference. Please help! I cant stand getting bogus emails all day long!

Sorry KT, but that answer is ridiculous.
Since 2007 there have been hundreds, if not thousands, of messages on this discussion forum about the need for client-side email filtering on the iPhone. Server-side filtering has two major problems:
Many people using the same server/service have different notions of what’s SPAM. I might need to see marketing messages from some firm I work with and ignore political messages. You might work in politics and want to filter something completely different. There is not way for a service to filter out SPAM unless it has individual data on what to filter out. Programmers who write services choose to put common functionality on the server side and user-specific stuff on the client side because that’s the most effective solution.
All good mail clients filter SPAM in some way. Even Apple Mail.app filters SPAM using a relatively sophisticated algorithm. Thus the folks who do server filtering know that an additional, fine-grain, filter exists downstream from them. If they do more filtering upstream, they will make more mistakes, and users will get mad. They are incentivized by every other email client to filter out only the truly blatant SPAM, and let users handle the rest with client-side filtering.
There are other iPhone email clients, for jailbroken phones, so the market for this capability clearly exists. Why has Apple gotten the answer wrong for 5 years?
Frankly, my kids got me an iPhone for Christmas because they thought I was a luddite. I’m looking to get out of the contract because I just can’t use it to read my email and my old phone was more than good enough to talk on. I’ve been an Apple customer since the Original Mac, but this is the first Apple product that just doesn’t work.

Junk Mail from a specific individual making me insane....how can I block it

I'm getting junk mail from a friend of a friend, and I mark his messages as junk EVERY TIME I GET ONE. Yet, somehow, alas, every message from him gets through to my inbox. How can this (and a homicide) be prevented? If you mark a message "Junk" why is the very next message from the exact same sender not Junk? Is this a Mac virus? What do I have to do? He is not in my address book, nor is the setting checked to receive messages always from senders in my address book.
I'm seriously going to drop an atom bomb on this guy if his junk mail keeps arriving......he is a mo-ron who barely knows how to use a computer. I'm not calling him.
PLEASE HELP ME......PLEASE....

Its because you have his email or other contact information set in the "Previous recipients" list. To remove him from this list, go to the "Window" menu and choose "Previous Recipients." Then locate and remove all instances of his name and email, and try adding him to the junk mail list again.
Another option is to create a rule that recognizes his email address and moves his email to the trash or Junk Mail folder.
Lastly, you might as well just ask him to remove you from his email list...

HT4864 Is there a way to block junk mail?

Is there a way to block junk email?

Hello Ruby,
The following article provides helpful information on how to manage junk mail in your iCloud e-mail.
iCloud: Manage junk mail
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2649
If you receive unwanted email (spam), you can mark it as junk. Messages marked as junk are are displayed with a junk mail icon in the message list.
Important: Because email messages in the Junk folder are automatically deleted after 30 days, periodically check the Junk folder for email messages that were marked as junk mistakenly.
Mark a message as junk
In the message list, select the message that you want to mark as junk.
Do either of the following:
Choose Mark as Junk Mail from the Action pop-up menu in the iCloud Mail toolbar.The message is color-coded brown and moved to the Junk folder.
Drag the message to the Junk folder in the sidebar.
Subsequent email messages from the same sender are automatically marked as junk.
Cheers,
Allen

A number of people have received similar messages in error. However their email doesn't usually get blocked. If you have confirmed that it is indeed blocked by sending yourself a test message, you will need to contact Support.
If you currently happen to have AppleCare, either because you recently bought Apple hardware or have paid to extend the inititial period, you can contact them here:
http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/
You will need the serial number of the covered hardware.
If you are not covered by AppleCare, then - in common with other free email services - there is no free support and you may be asked to pay a fee. You should insist that this is a problem they have caused and you shouldn't be charged.

Problem Removing Junk Mail from POP Server

Is there a way to automatically remove junk mail from the POP server when I delete the Junk within the Apple Mail application?
The Mail application Junk filter is working pretty well for me on my primary MacBook Pro system. My inbox is mostly junk free and I like that I can check the Junk folder to see if any "good" e-mail got snared before deleting the junk from the junk folder.
However, "Erasing Junk Mail" from the junk mail folder does NOT erase the junk from my POP server. So if I check the same e-mail account on another computer or my Treo, I have endure the same junk messages again which can quickly mount up to 100+ messages over the course of a day.
I can manually delete messages from the POP server by using the Get Info window in the Shortcuts/Actions Menu at the bottom left of the Mail browser.
However, I have to manually identify and select the junk messages from all the mail on the POP server to delete it which is both tedious and time consuming.
Isn't there some way instruct the program to automatically delete Junk from the server when it's deleted from the browser?
It seems like it would be an obvious feature.
I've looked for some way to do this including apple scripts but I can't find a way to do it.
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

michellzappa,
All of my e-mail providers have some sort of web based access for my accounts. They identify, segregate and prevent any message marked as bounce from being downloaded to my inbox. Is this what you are describing as redundant?
Mail Scripts 2.7.10 by Andreas Amann, provides an excellent compilation of mail scripts.
I would advise that you create a new post with the title. "Can I write an applescript to automatically clean out messages on server every hour?" in the AppleScript Forum.

Hoping someone out there can with getting junk mail from my windows live mailbox ? on my iphone

Hoping someone could help me with getting junk mail from windows mail to my i phone?, i would only like to get my inbox mail

Are you accessing your Windoze Live account as a POP account or as an Exchange account with the iPhone's Mail app?
If as a POP account, received messages that are in the account's Inbox at the incoming mail server will be downloaded.
If you are accessing the account as an Exchange account, all server stored mailboxes will be available automatically when accessing the account with the iPhone's Mail app. If as an Exchange account, seems like you would want to have the account's junk mailbox available in case a legitimate message is incorrectly marked as junk and moved out of the account's Inbox mailbox.

If you don't want to keep it, select it, on the iCloud website Mail page click the Trash icon in the toolbar to move it to the Trash, then click the cogwheel icon at top right and choose 'Empty Trash'. Or in the Mail application drag the messages to the Trash and from the Mailbox menu choose 'Erase deleted items' then 'iCloud'.

Is there any way to find a log of the send e-mail from ICloud.. to analyse how many email has been send and deleted within a day from send items

Thx Winston,

I had a trouble in sending e-mails from icloud on 22/2 and when I saw in my send item there were no emails.
But the mesgs to whom I emailed received and out of which only few of them didn't got the email. So I wanted to know the log abt the outflow of the mesg with subject and the receipants email id and the list with attachment or not.
How and where will I get the information apart from send item and draft mesg and the outflow undelivered?
Regards

How do I set up my Mac to auto retrieve mail from icloud?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If you can't get your mail to work on Snow Leopard after June 30, you might want to try one of these approaches
1. Configuring Mail in Snow Leopard
2. Delete your mail account from Mail preferences and set it up again using the Mail Server Information.
Some users have apparently encountered issues using this information in pre-Lion set ups (I haven't), Roger Wilmut has kindly provided instructions for those who find themselves with this problem.

Block junk mail on my I phone

How can I block junk mail on my iphone
thanks

With an IMAP account.
I also access my IMAP account with the Mail.app on my Mac (which includes a junk mail filter) and I keep the Mail.app on my Mac launched and running actively accessing the account for new messages.
Any message received that is marked as junk by the junk mail filter with the Mail.app on my Mac and moved to the account's Junk mailbox is reflected automatically when accessing the account with the iPhone's Mail client since all server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account are kept synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account.

Restore mail from iCloud

By deleting mailboxes from my @me account I didn't expect that iCloud would sync. Is there a possibility of restoring mail from iCloud/ idisk for mailboxes? I would expect that back ups would be taken from the iCloud?
hope somebody or Apple can help. regards, albertus

If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, try temporarily recreating the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. Now try using your current password even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. If successful, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.
