I will be away for the whole of April,and am concerned about my mailbox getting over-full whilst not here to delete. All my contacts know ,but it's the loads of junk mail,that seems to be getting more and more. I have informed some that I don't want it,and I have Avg anti virus. Hope someone has ideas.Am using Firefox browser as my default. From a computer novice! Brenda

You can block senders of junkmail. Go into 'Tools' and you'll see 'Block sender'. Apply this to any junkmail that is in your in-box and you won't get anymore from them. Deb:)

Also I would advise never reply to junk mail once you do that they know its a valid email address and wont stop. I go to messages then block this sender and delete the email.
