Spectranet has begun labelling messages that appear to be junk mail as "Possible SPAM". Below are instructions on how to automatically filter these messages into a folder for storing junk mail. This system is effective and highly accurate. However, it is strongly recommended you investigate these messages before you delete them so you do not risk deleting real mail!


  1. Outlook Express 6
  2. Netscape/Mozilla Mail
  3. Eudora 5.1
  4. Outlook XP

Netscape/Mozilla Mail

  1. From the opening screen of Netscape/Mozilla Mail, click on the Tools pull down menu, and then go to Message Filters.

    Tools, Message Filters
  2. From the Message Filters window click on New

    Click on New
  3. For the name of the rule type Spam, put a dot next to Match Any of the Following, and select Subject and Contains from the drop down menus.

    Begins with image
  4. In the box next to Contains type in [Possible Spam]. Under Perform these actions put a check next to Move to folder and then click on New Folder.

    [Possible Spam]
  5. Type in Spam as the name of the folder and click on Ok.

    Spam
  6. You should now be back at the Mail Filters screen. Make sure your new spam filter is enabled, close the Mail Filters window and enjoy your new spam filter! Mozilla users may also want to use Mozilla's own built in spam filter. For instructions on doing so, please see the Mozilla Spam Filtering Page for more details.
