Default Do You Open Spam?

There's a great processed meat product called Spam, and
fried up, it's really good! Actually, if you spend 5 minutes at that site, and
click on the different people on the flash movie - they say different things that
are way over the top funny! But anyway...

Spam is good to eat, but how many of you actually open spam in your email box?
I don't at all, but junk them right away. So again, what do you do with your spam?

you have to monitor spam folder... I found many important emails somehow ended up in there. Same with junk mail folder.

I am trying at least check if there are any emails from familiar domains...

I do that as well because sometime genuine emails are wrongly identified at spam or junk

I always open the folder just to check, but usually end up deleting them all in one foul swoop.

As for eating the stuff.....

Two important e-mails went into my spam folder today, so I'm glad I'm a responsible e-mailer

I usually have to configure SpamAssassin's white list when I get valid emails
marked as spam. It's in your cPanel controls.
