Is it possible to not filter contacts emails even if they trigger one of my spam filters?

starman asked:


I have spam filters for some common words (for example, “shop” in the subject line) so I would like to not apply my spam filters when one of my contacts sends me an email. Is there a way to not apply filters to certain senders?
I understand that I can use a filter to send mail from one specific email address to a folder, However, that uses up filters fast and is painful to set up for many addresses.

What I am interested in is sending mail from anyone in my contact list to a folder. Is it possible to do that?

Is there some special “mailing list” I can sign up on? I want this test account to receive as much “unwanted” mail as possible. I am trying to filter out all types of “spam” mail and need to receive as many different types to test it properly. Any suggestions? Thank You for your time.

Can I Send a Mass Email to 2000 Customers In Blocks of 10?

NelsonBig asked:


I have about 2000 customers and I want to send them all an email through my business email account. However, I know that there are spam filters that block messages that have too many recipients. I’d like to input all 2000 and have them automatically sent in blocks of 10 to avoid these filters. Don’t worry. They’re all customers.

I’m trying to filter the word “casino” from my yahoo email, but it never works! WHY?

snizzay asked:


I have tried everything to get this casino0120.net to stop emailing me. Nothing is working. Today alone I have gotten 4 emails from them and it is only 10:30AM. Yesterday I set up a filter to move emails containing the word “casino” in the header, subject, or body to my trash. Today I see that it clearly doesn’t work. The contents of the emails are always in text format so it should be blocking this.. What is the deal here. Below I have copied and pasted the “body” of one of the emails. The word casino is in the body, but still wasn’t filtered.

Blocking the email addresses or domains is not an option because every single email is from a different domain and address.
Oh my god, I am soooo not advertising for this website. And please understand I can not block any of these addresses. It would be pointless because they are different every time as I stated above.

Computer question. How to elimiate spam in my regular email”?

Dan M asked:


6 month old computer. Working fine until a few days ago, when I started receiving a lot of email in my normal in box.

Previously, my spam filter put 95% of them in the spam folder, for easy deletion. But now I seem to receive a ton of spam that bypasses my spam folder.

I use Yahoo mail and have a Vista operating system - what to do.

Not computer literate, so lead me by the nose.
