Ah! But you don't have to use web based anything as they offer free pop
accounts. So, evolution just snorkles down my email directly to my
machine and I get almost zero spam here as the spam it detects it keeps
there, instead of delivering it to me. Like you, every so often I
firefox into my online account to empty the trash after searching for
the false-positives. Works pretty darn well for me. Yahoo, on the other
hand, has been the garbage collector for the world. Like a .22 with the
serial numbers burred off, it was a "throw-down" for me.

Wow, it's worked really well for me. Maybe you don't have something
clicked on in your preferences?? Ric
