![]() ![]() With iCloud, this can be a big problem for some users, as sometimes important good messages get deleted. The iCloud or FastMail server filter deletes some messages up front. In both cases there are potentially 4 layers of filtering happening: Just to be clear, the filtering in question is done by iCloud email not the Apple Mail client? So if I use Fastmail in Apple Mail client, this filtering behind the scenes that I cannot see will not occur? This would ensure (if there’s an easy way to differentiate them) that they all get through, and you would avoid potentially confusing SpamSieve by training it that some messages from the same sender were good and some were spam. You could optionally create a Mail rule above the SpamSieve rule to move the good messages from the “spammy” sender to a different mailbox. This would ensure that all of them get blocked, and it would avoid potentially confusing SpamSieve because you wouldn’t be telling it that the messages that are not really spam are spam. You could optionally create a Mail rule above the SpamSieve rule to delete messages from the sender that you want to block. However, there may be slight negative affects on the filtering due to giving it mixed signals about the “legitimate” sender that won’t let you unsubscribe. SpamSieve will usually end up doing the right thing, even with different types of messages from the same sender. The simplest is to train the ones you don’t want as spam and the ones you do want as good. There are different strategies you can take here: Some I get some good emails from, and I presume that is much more difficult to deal with. I know that takes up space on the server, but since I will delete the spam periodically anyway, does this really matter? So regarding your section 3.14 “ SpamSieve and Multiple Macs”, is it better to go with option 1 of running SpamSieve on one Mac and letting it clean for all Macs, or to go with option 2 of the drone setup.Īlso, I am leaning towards having my Spam mailbox on the server rather than locally. They are IMAP accounts (there is one old POP account on the desktop which is just getting junk now, but I don’t sync it to the other devices, and it has no option for IMAP.) My laptop is running most of the time, but about twice a year there are periods of about 10 days each when I don’t have it with me. I use Mail on the laptop, a desktop, iPhone, and iPad. ![]() I use Apple Mail client, and have several email accounts. I installed it on my laptop which is my main computer. I am trying to decide on the best set up for my situation. I am currently using SpamSieve on trial mode. ![]()
