How do I stop all the spam being emailed to me as groupname-owner@yahoogroups.com?

Modigleana asked:


I have two yahoo groups. Both groups’ spam filters are turned on but on a daily basis, I get spam sent that has been sent to groupname-owner@yahoogroups.com re-routed to my personal email address. These are not messages from members but are from people external to the group. They are flagged as spam by Yahoo, but are still routed directly to my personal email address.

Please, no stupid or irrelevant answers. I have email filtering. I do not need a new email address, and please do not simply post the Yahoo Groups spam info as Spamguard is NOT solving this problem in any way.

Even setting my groups to send me no email does not solve this problem because again, just in case you didn’t get it already, the email is being routed to me when it is sent to “groupname-owner@yahoogroups”.

Any help in stopping this would be appreciated.

Is Yahoo email spam filter anti-Christian?

tonynotbaloney asked:


Since changing from Tesco to Yahoo for my email I requested the resumption of a regular bulletin from the Lawyers Christian Fellowship on issues involving new laws that were being passed by the UK Government that go right against christian ethics. The first time it arrived as junk. I told the server that it was not junk. About a week later i got anoth one from the same organisation. It also went into the junk mail section.

This never happened on Tesco’s email service.

Why is yahoo so biased against Christians? If this a Leftist Atheistic conspiracy within Yahoo

I hope this question doesn’t get scrubbed off before anyone can read it.

I need a new email service that works thru Internet Explorer. I have Yahoo now- very bad spam; no way to fix?

Shortcut asked:


Yahoo mail resides on the Yahoo server so there is no way to apply spam filtering. I paid $20 for their enhanced service but still get 20 - 30 spam msgs per day in the inbox

Do I report strange spam in my email to the better business bureau?

emily51501 asked:

So I keep getting these weird emails that the return address always ends in .terra.es with different names in the begining so my spam filter will not catch it.
It is always some letter from someone in a different country asking my to do something like accept money for them here in the states and send it to them.
It gets very personal in the letters, they tell me who they are and how many kids they have.
There is nothing at the bottom of the page to unsubscribe.
Should I report these emails to someone? Who?

KEN D asked:


i got a spam email in my bulk folder from one of those places trying to sell drugs on the internet. i usually look over my bulk emails just to make sure a legitimate one didnt get filtered out by mistake. i look at who sent it and if i dont recognize it i simply delete it. but the address of the supposed sender caught my eye on this one. it is my email address!!!!

Anyone else having good messages sent to the spam folder?

rred_ asked:

I just discovered that message from 3 people I want to get email from have been being routed to the spam folder. I have received mail from 2 of these people with no issues in the past. So evidently yahoo changed their spam filter settings, and not for the better.

I was just wondering if other people have had this problem and to alert all of you to check your spam folder if you are wondering why an email you were expecting never came.

I am on an email list but when people send mail to the list it goes to my spam filter?

Jennifer H asked:


People can send an email to one address and the group of us will receive the email, but whenever someone sends an email it goes to my spam filter. I’ve added the address to my contacts but that didn’t fix it, what do I do?
