Whatever the frequency, I'm sure it eats up a meaningful slice of your day --

lol - you need to have way more options - I have 17,675 junk emails in my Junk folder in Thunderbird.

So about once every 3 months.

That helps, but I still have to scan the junk folder for important emails that got trapped by the spam filter.

Thats why I tend to keep them.

I just archive once in a while...... Im not even going to look in the archive folder. It would probobly crash my computer.

Well, that difference depends on your settings, I think. For some people, there is no trash. "Delete" is DELETE.

once a week or so... it's a fucking drag, deleting all the comment-spam requests from wordpress...

2HousePlague · 06-01-2006, 12:47 AM

Funny reverse-bell sorta pattern in the votes. Seems folks are a bit polarized in their behavior.

Same here. Some days it's worse than others, but at bare min. it's once a day.

I'm not having much luck with Thunderbird. I have flagged every spam message in every account I have for over a month now. Yesterday it caught one spam. It still thinks the X-Biz newsletter is a scam, and the people who want to give me 20% for helping them get their 50 Million to the US are not.

It's pretty much stopped catching the random word subject line mails.

sickkittens · 06-01-2006, 05:31 AM

Usually during the morning and late at night. It hasn't been too bad lately. *knocks on wood*
