Junk Mailbox, it’s just not for spam anymore
I got an email from someone today and they said that they didn’t get my email because it was in their junk email. I don’t understand why people aren’t checking their junk mail more often because I check mine everyday, like it’s another inbox.
Why is that? Because I have found no matter how high or low my junk mail settings are, some regular emails sneak in there! So I might as well just turn the whole thing off and just start adding each email as just so I know that it’s junk. But what’ s the point, I will still check my junk email because I don’t trust it! ARGH. I don’t know what is worse, one overloaded inbox or checking two of them.
I love Outlook 97 before the junk email box existed. It was just easier to delete unwanted emails and create rules to force them to the garbage. Seriously.
So the point of this post is this…I recommend checking your junk mail everyday and add folks to the “not junk list”. You may be suprised to find a few emails in there that you were supposed to get and never did, but did. I will only take a few minutes and maybe, just maybe someone won’t be thinking, “wow, he never replied back…” Or if you’re getting way too much junk email, maybe it’s time for you to get a fresh email account that you only give to the “important peoples” and keep that old one for the junk. Just a thought.
To close: I know also that it’s not the subject line that sends it off to Junk Mail. I just looked at my junk mail and even the most simple words in the subject line get shoved down to no-whereville. So with that said, I turned the junk mail feature off. I will do it myself, then I won’t miss anymore emails.
Rant over!
