Yep, I understand that, but at least it
means it’s automatically all together and easily recognised and dumped.

Hi Tony
But do remember that the birding-aus posted spam will still end up in
your birding-aus folder, because it’s been posted to the newsgroup.
For me that’s preferable than having it in with all my
non-birding-aus correspondence.
All the best
Bill

I
don’t receive what I would call a nuisance volume of spam, but what I do
get is at least 99% routed via birding-aus.
I get very little at all addressed
directly to my personal user name, and I’m told by my ISP that this is
because they have very tight spam control filters in place, and that my user
name is not too easily matched by spammers.
I think
Bill’s idea of setting up separate incoming message folders for traffic
from certain known sources is a good one, thus allowing any messages from
unrecognised sources to be put into the general inbox for later perusal and
dumping if suss.
I’m
about to set up some folders Bill, thanks for the idea.
