Yes, basically, just a different term. Junk email includes spam, phishing, viruses, basically emails you consider "junk".Originally Posted by LSULOVER

same here, but then we generally agree with the filter!Originally Posted by katachtig
What cracks me up is that the filter now marks some IT emails as spam.

This popped up in a meeting last week. Basically I had "trained" our email filter so well that it was catching ALL the spam. A few legit emails would get caught, but I would just have to go in there a couple times a day and release them.
Last week in a managers meeting, I found out that the sales people were concerned that they weren't getting emails because no one was getting spammed anymore
So instead of a congratulations...they asked me to start letting some spam through.I don't care...actually I'm letting it all through. Many said that they would rather sift through a bunch of spam to find legit emails rather than to "miss" anything.
So do you like Spam (emails)?

Agreed that viruses are worse then spam;( My wife got rid of 130 viral/spy type of deals not to long ago.Originally Posted by Trouts mom
I was just going to come in here andat my last comment made..I would MUCH rather have SPAM than the sickness my computer has now
So, I am adding..."SPAM, not really....awful awful viruses that are taking over my world?...YES"
