how many times do you have to mark a message as junk before Mail actually realises the emails are spam? I have been getting mail from an Australian site called logo mates for a year now! I mark it as junk, but mail keeps putting them in my inbox, saying Mail thinks this is spam Golly gee!!!

If Junk Mail is still coming to your InBox, then you may have it set to training mode. If you want it to file them for you then in Mail - Preferences go to Junk Mail. You'll see choices like When junk mail arrives • Mark it as junk, but leave it in my Inbox • Move it to the Junk mailbox •

I sit on my desk and everyone asks what is that dome shaped thing, and the answer is it is an Airport Base Station, no body questions it. (note that is is not connected to anything and makes a good paper weight). On 22/05/2013, at 8:47 AM, Pedro pfow...@iinet.net.au wrote: Well, there's

Thanks for that Pedro ;) Just trying to work out what the difference is between logging into my modem and having an airport in between. I have just upgraded my office desktop (So now Apple can safely release their new 32 model for $1500) I was wondering about the ease of transferring files.

Hi Brett, I am trying to understand what you really want to know. Your original question: What is the advantage of using airport? Do you mean what is the advantage of using a Apple Airport Base Station ( AirPort Extreme or Time Capsule) to create a Wireless Network? Then you mention ease of

Hi Brett, Just a thought ­ may not even be relevant since I use Entourage, rather than Mail, as my email client. I use a lot of mailing rules to sort my mail into different folders, as it arrives, and sometimes find things where I don¹t expect them. Generally, I find that this is due to the

Brett, Trying to visualise your setup. What I'm reading is that you have two computers sitting next to each other. One old computer with a bunch of stuff on it, some of which you want to transfer and some you don't.?? You also have an iPad - let's leave that out of the equation for now. And
