Junk Mail Filter Option
 
I have my junk mail filter options set to "Safe List Only" but still receive
junk mail in the inbox from senders not on my white list. Specifically, the
OEM Software type messaes and the Low Cost Drug messages. Is this a known
issue? Or is there something else that needs to be done that I haven't done
as of yet. I have verified my white list and it only includes senders whom
I've approved.

Thanks in advance,

Dan

is your address on the safe list and do the spammers have your address in
the from field? (it's a common tactic)
