First of all, I never automatically download anything. I don't care what it is.
I first go to 'webmail' to see what's in my IN box, still at the server. I have several folders there, one for the accepted e-pals, one for the suspects and one for trash. Anybody who[m] I haven't approved beforehand goes thru the suspect folder first, as do all spammers, unsolicited junk and infected stuff. I'll pull out of there and 'approve' any new e-pals and such. Once in the IN folder, if I see e-mails I don't wanna read (and y'all know which ones we mean) I delete them on the spot. Those never get near my actual e-mail thingie. I only download those I wanna read. Period. As for forwarding stuff, there is a way to do it without all those addresses already there. It's not quite copy-paste but it does involve deleting some text. I also use the bcc. feature a lot. Any questions......??? Shoot away. Bobberino, an e-mailer since 1995.
