[X Newbies] Intro | Apple Mail and Spam

[birgit rhoads]

I would say the same.  The only rule I made was to move junk mail to 
the junk folder and to delete it when I quit mail.  After the initial 
training program, I get very little junk mail that I have to designate 
as junk.  I have seen no false positives.
