Default Why Messages go to my Spam folder

Thanx for that Norm..you wanna bet that when my service contract comes due
with Symantec,I'll be looking elsewhere! After every update I have to
reconfigure my firewall...its just BS!
I have spent a fair bit of time in the NAS help centre and the funny thing
is it all comes down to the "allowed list",which this G-mail address is
actually in! Go figure.Have E-mailed them about this.
Thanx for listening and for your input.

This might be something I should be asking the Symantec people...


Yes.

...but so far haven't found a news group there.


Symantec is losing users. I have quit using Symantec products as of System
Works 2003. I will no longer buy anything published by Symantec. Which is
unfortunate because peer users, such as I, who actually could have helped
you are not going to be there.

So...All e-mails from my daughter,she is in my address book,just regular ol
messages,go directly into my Norton Anit Spam folder! BTW I check it as
"this is not spam" ,but the next one ends up there too.
She uses G-mail and am wondering if this has anything to do with it,but otoh
this doesn't happen to other people she e-mails.


Most likely because a number of GMail servers have been listed by the
SpamCop Blocking List (SCBL) from time to time. Symantec probably scores
email from GMail on that basis. You should spend a little time with the NAS
Help files; see if they don't tell you how to manually override such
listings.

Unfortunately, Symantec has better marketers than programmers, so they can
con people into buying a product which, in many ways, is inferior to a
handful of free software which does much the same thing.
