I am getting flooded with junk emails in my @me account

Hi i recently have been getting loads of junk emails to my @me acocunt how can i stop this
thanks

To get a new iCloud address you would have to create a new iCloud account and migrate your iCloud data to the new account.  If you want to do this, go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account, and when prompted about what to do with the iCloud data choose Keep on [My iDevice].  Then set up a new iCloud account with a new ID, turn you iCloud data syncing back to On, and when prompted choose Merge to upload your data to the new account.  When you turn Mail to On you will get a new @icloud email address (@mac and @me addresses are no longer available).  Once your data is in the new account, you can just delete the old account from your other devices without saving the data on the device, then sign into the new one and the migrated data in the new account will be synced back to them.
If you need to, you can change your iTunes ID to this new email address.  This guide explains how to change an Apple ID name, but you can follow this and edit the primary email address instead to change it: http://support.apple.com/kb/HE40.

  • SMTP folder, "Badmail" is getting flooded with millions of junk emails- SharePoint 2010 incoming email

    Hi All,
    Need your expert advice and help !
    Incoming e-mail has been successfully configured and working fine on SharePoint 2010.
    Issue: Badmail folder is getting flooded with millions of junk emails. First Queue folder gets them, and then moves them to Badmail folder. Incoming Email has been successfully configured for SharePoint 2010 and SharePoint list is receiving the emails (there
    is a delay, but that is fine!)
    Please help. what other information should i provide to help understand this issue better ?

    What Reverse DNS Lookup does is attempt to validate that the piece of mail came from an IP that belongs to the domain in the EHLO/HELO command - http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/WindowsServer2003/Library/IIS/233c0fde-7315-479a-a7fb-2e9d00ff73fd.mspx?mfr=true
    So it doesn't directly filter spam (certainly possible to get spam from GMail/Hotmail servers that Reverse DNS Lookup will see as 'valid').

  • Getting flooded with Apple Discussions subscription digest e-mails!

    I've gotten 9 identical messages in the last hour. Typically it's only supposed to be one per week! Anyone else having the same problem ATM?

    I'm getting flustered and annoyed because I get tens of emails each week from the forum *for issues to which I am not subscribed to*.
    It's impossible to change this behavior, whether I try to do it in "My settings", or in "My public profile", or in "My questions", and so on and so forth.
    Even reading each individual question that I have posted (all of them solved, BTW) I see the link to "Subscribe to this Topic," which should mean I am not subscribed.
    But something in this auto-generated piece of garbage doesn't read what is in it and I'm flooded with *unwanted emails*.
    Would some forum administrator (no one can guess who this person may be, there is no way of finding about him or her; any query with "forum administrator" and similar words would give one access to any topic whatsoever that happens to have either or both words, but not what one is looking for) read about this problem and find a way to solve it once and for all?
    Please stop annoying us!
    Thank you, whoever you are

  • Sorry might sound dumb but am new to this. I'm getting loads of junk emails. I've noticed my firewall is turned off should I turn it on?

    Sorry might sound dumb but am new to this. I'm getting loads of junk emails. I've noticed my firewall is turned off should I turn it on?

    No, a firewall is for blocking connections based on ports and protocols.  You could block all of your email with it by blocking pop or imap ports, but then you would get no emails at all.
    You already are protected from direct connections initiated from the internet if you have a router.  Don't turn anything else on.  Unsubscribe to any mailing lists that you might be on and filter your junk email in your mail application.

    The genius bar technicians can check your MBP for possible hardware problems and specific software issues that you may have.  The diagnosis will be free.  Any extensive repairs will not be free.
    If you have minor software problems, you essentially will have to deal with them yourself.  Examine these two comprehensive documents for possible problem definition and solutions.  If you encounter problems that you are unable to cope with, start a new discussion and there will be persons willing to assist you in solving them.

  • A while back I made a gamecenter account that was not associated with an Apple ID, it was with my email, now my gamecenter account IS my Apple ID. I want to delete it and make a new one, but i can't figure out how. Help!

    Since you can't delete Apple IDs and having multiple Apple IDs can cause confusion, what you may want to do is rename your existing Apple ID to the new email (desired Apple ID).  That would in effect do what you want, get rid of the old and give you the new.

  • Why am I getting flooded with calls from a deactivated verizon wireless number?

    Im not a verizon customer, but after spending several hours on the phone with their customer support to no avail, Im turning to the community for help.
    The past two days Ive been flooded with calls from verizon wireless numbers in MO (mostly 636 area code). I try answering, no response. I call back, and after ringing twice I get a prerecorded message - "The verizon wireless number you're trying to call has been changed, disconnected, or is no longer in service", even when calling back seconds of the original call. Occasionally a voicemail is left, and its nothing but exactly 5 seconds of silence.
    This is getting very frustrating, since its almost constant. Im averaging 4 calls an hour between the hours of 10am and 9pm, with a couple up until 11pm. I have no idea whats going, and its getting quite irritating, and Im burning through minutes checking and deleting all the voicemails.
    Just for reference, some of the numbers are -
    >Phone numbers deleted<
    And they all give the same verizon message when called.
    Any ideas or suggestions are great.

    Your device may have this option:
    If I get an annoying call, I will add them to my contact list as Spam and block the number on my device. The call will go straight to VM and funny, a message is never left.Problem Solved.
    Also I agree with Jim, if this is a new number for you, just have it changed.

  • Mac Mail flooded with spam emails

    My main email has been hacked & I'm getting "Mail delivery failure" emails by the 1000's over 3 days now.  Genius bar couldn't fix it.  Ran Norton & they couldn't find a virus so I think it's coming from another source rather than my computer.  Which is good.  I have 15" MacBook Pro running 10.9.4 latest software.
    It's coming in in iCloud mail as well as my .mac mail which I've used EVERYWHERE so I don't want to delete it.  Help!

    Change your password immediately. This will stop any future hacking using your account. If possible add two step authentication. This will require a device capable of SMS.
    http://www.wired.com/2013/03/apple-2-step-verification/
    Setup using Manage my Apple ID: https://appleid.apple.com/
    Once you’ve changed the password for your email account it is important to change the password of any other accounts with other services such as Facebook, Twitter, Amazon or your internet banking that may have had the same password.
    Never use the same password twice.

  • My name is Tom: I am sick of spam mail.  Everytme I open wi fi, my mail box gets flooded with spam  800 msgs at once.  Does anyone know how I can filter this crap??

    Again,  Need help to learn to filter spam email, gobs of it!  Thanks, Tom

    1. Check with your service provider and take advanatge of any spam filter settings they have, or blacklisting options they may offer.
    2. You could get a gmail account, and set your current account to forward to it - then let gmails filters catch as much of it as possible.  That will let you keep your current email address in use with those you want to be using it.

  • What is supposed to happen with Junk Emails

    Hi, i have just switched from Windows (and i am NEVER GOING BACK), in MS Outlook in Windows, when stuff is marked as Spam/Junk that address is remembered and sent to the Junk Folder when it is received again.
    Using the Mac program "MAIL" this doesn't seem to happen, if i mark an email address as junk, it makes no difference when i receive mail from that address again, i still have to mark it as Junk again and again.
    In Windows, junk mail could be sent to a Junk/Spam folder, it created a Black List and it tried to remember Junk addresses.
    tim

    Filtering spam based on the sending address is wasted effort because the address is phony and changes constantly. Mail's junk filter works by doing a sophisticated analysis of the text of the message. Training the filter improves its ability to recognize spam from its contents. The address has nothing to do with it.
    Here is a semi-technical description of Mail's Junk Filter: [http://macdevcenter.com/pub/a/mac/2004/05/18/spam_pt2.html]
