Hi
My mum has a hotmail mail account she uses now and again. She constantly gets spam. All the usual ones like viagra and dates etc. How does this work? I use gmail and never have any. She rarely surfs the web and rarely uses her email account.
They'll be running clever software that can randomly generate email addresses.
My Hotmail account is very good at filtering out the spam and putting it into the junk folder. That gets fifty a day sometimes but probably only one or two a week make it though into the in box.

thanks
If your Mum is sure she doesn't want to go on a date with me then I'll stop emailing her.
Sorry.
I wish my hotmail worked as well as some say above.
I have to move about 10 a day to junk, and then go in junk to block them.
Keep thinking about calling it a day with hotmail. I’ve had it for over 20yrs though
Just recently the Hotmail spam filter seems to have gone on Strike. Over the past 2 weeks i seem to be getting 10+ per day that should go into spam. Ironically, the ones i keep flagging as safe, still go to Junk
Google mail gets no spam because the people at Google HQ who are tasked with reading your mail have the good grace to delete everything they know you won't want.
Does she respond to prize draws and competitions in magazines, giving them her email address?
