I had one of those AHA moments. My main account was getting filled up with spam. Since I want to keep this email address, it dawned on me to do the following: Send everything addressed to my main account to my Deleted Folder. Then go into it and pick out the notices I want to keep and make a message rule from that notice and have it go back into my main account. After a few weeks, I will no longer have spam in my main account only those things I want to look at first or act upon. I already have folders set up for Family and Friends and the lists I AM on like this one. Will let you know how this works out. I do not want to have mailwasher or anything like that program. Since I have Norton's Anti-Virus checking everything that comes in and I know not to open any attachments, plus everything is only read in text format -- this should work well for me. Before I could do shift- highlight and mass delete but this should be even easier.
