Expert: Dave Mitch - 10/19/2009
Question
Hello, Dave,
Thanks for taking the time to read this email. For the last week or so, I've been received large amounts of strange emails in my Gmail account. They go to my Inbox, not my Spam folder. In the last few days, my account has now started sending these messages, too.
I've attached a cropped screen-shot of my Inbox - it shows some of the messages that I've received within the last 12 hours.
Do you have any idea what these could be? Any thoughts will be most appreciated. Thanks again.
Sajid
Answer
The screenshot does not reveal much. Anyway, enable your spam filter (if it already isnt). Also block the senders (you can do this by creating a custom filter on the basis of sender email address, subject etc.)
You can also forward all your gmail through POP or IMAP through additional spam filters (either premium or freely available).
