spam being sent to wlm

Sat Nov 02, 2019 2:04 am

Am I doing something wrong, until recently all my spam was picked up by firetrust never to be seen again. Now although the spam doesn't show up in firetrust when I open wlm it has been put into my spam file. I am using Gmail with wlm.

something new is happening since my previous post, spam is being shown in my MW, I am adding it to my black list and then washing. On opening my WLM there is the spam in my mail box, not even bothering to go into my spam folder now. Why is this happening, I use MW to stop this happening.

These messages are in the GMail Spam folder ?

Assuming so, then in MailWasher under Settings >> Accounts >> Incoming >> check it's set to IMAP >> then under the IMAP tab select the Junk/Spam folder to be checked by MailWasher as well as the Inbox folder it currently checks.

Many thanks rustic dog, I wouldn't know how to survive without you, seems you have all the answers. Wish Microsoft didn't send out so many updates, seems to always target MW and sends it all of a tizz.
