Re: Spam on devices

[Ronni Brown]

Hi Jennifer,

Spammers are getting smarter, and as long as they have your right server 
address, it doesn’t matter what name.
All you can do especially in POP email accounts in iOS12 is Mark the Spam 
messages as Junk & have move them to Junk:

Moving Spam Emails to the Junk Folder
The iOS Mail app offers a couple of ways to move mail to a Junk folder—even in 
bulk. 
Among the convenient features that come with an email account that is web-based 
is spam filtering right at the server. 
Moving mail to the Junk folder in iOS Mail notifies the spam filter at the 
server that it missed an unwanted spam email, so it can stop it next time.

To move a message to an account's Junk folder in iOS, open the inbox that 
contains the email:
With the spam message open:
Tap the flag button.
Select Move to Junk from the menu.
In the message list:
Swipe across the message from the right to left just enough to reveal the More 
menu. 
Tap More
Select Mark
Select Move to Junk


Cheers,
Ronni

Re: Spam on devices

[Jennifer Lefroy]

Thank you Ronnie.  The spam mail is coming into POP accounts .  The mail is
from various addresses and so the rules I have set up on my computer refer
to subject and words in the content.
How is it that my ISP sends them although the user names they are sent to
are not mine?

Regards,
Jennifer

Re: Spam on devices

Hi Jennifer,

If you block the Address in Mail on your computer, mail on iPhone/iPad should 
not receive any mail messages from that Address.
What type of email account is the Spam coming to?

Cheers,
Ronni
