I have several email accounts using verizon.net (FiOS), yahoo.com & gmail.com. One of my verizon.net email accounts has fallen victim to spam emails that the Verizon spam detector is not catching. I use the Windows Live Mail (WLM) email client installed on my PCs to pull down & send emails. The spam that is getting through Verizon's spam detector all uses ISO-8859-1 encoding in the "From" & "Subject" lines, an old spammers trick. When it gets to my PC, WLM correctly identifies it as spam and puts it in the Junk e-mail folder, which is great, but I'm looking for something better.
What I would really like to have happen is for the Verizon spam detector find it first and never send it to my PC at all. For a number of weeks I was forwarding the emails to Verizon at spamdetector.notcaught at verizon dot net. All I ever got was the system generated "thank you" auto-reply.
My question --> Has anyone here had the same problem and been able to create a filter on the Verizon website that works in catching these types of emails before they are sent to the PC?
Here is an example of the source information. This one happens to come from Ghana, but the little devils are constantly changing the domain name and IP addresses.
