Web Email

andyp · Sep 17, 2008, 09:19:02

I have hundreds of junk email which I delete every so often, is there any way of getting rid of this beforehand. Much appreciate any advice. I have tried to unsubsribe but to no avail.

Hi Andy,

If you log into the customer portal on www.idnet.com, click on email, you can set up message filters and custom rules or add a domain to the blacklist.

Hope that helps.

What Vit said, Andy. Thanks, Vit.

If I've understood you correctly, you want the spam to stop coming. Unfortunately, that's not an option. I'm sorry to say it but 'unsubscribing' is the worst thing you can do as it just confirms that your address is active to the spammer. Have a Google and you'll find lots of things you can do to hopefully stop getting any extra, but you'll never eliminate it.

just blacklist the domain, then you shouldn't get any more

Cannot get onto IDNET web site, is something wrong.

Rik · Sep 18, 2008, 09:28:10

Not here, Andy, but there may have been a hiccough an hour ago, of course.

I get redirected to www.idnet.net

whats happened to the .com site?

Rik · Sep 18, 2008, 09:40:27

I've always used idnet.net, so I'm not sure.

Simon · Sep 18, 2008, 09:44:32

Is there a difference, then?

Rik · Sep 18, 2008, 09:46:02

IDNet.net would have been the original. I suspect that when they obtained idnet.com, they just put a redirect on it, though I could be wrong.

andyp · Sep 18, 2008, 09:51:49

Cannot get onto IDNET web site. Anyone else having problems, just times out

Rik · Sep 18, 2008, 09:53:21

Fine here, Andy, both the main site and the customer account page.

Glenn · Sep 18, 2008, 10:00:48

Fine here too

Rik · Sep 18, 2008, 10:04:08

I've just tried on idnet.com too, it redirects seamlessly onto idnet.net.

Glenn · Sep 18, 2008, 10:06:05

I think it always has, since the .com email address has been used.

Rik · Sep 18, 2008, 10:09:49

That's certainly my understanding, Glenn. I was just eliminating the possibility that it wasn't working for some reason.

Simon · Sep 18, 2008, 10:15:20

It was working for me when I posted earlier too.

David · Sep 18, 2008, 10:17:50

I can't login to my web mail so it might be something to with Web Sense at work. Will try at home tonight. Thanks to everyone.

Sebby · Sep 18, 2008, 12:54:31

That sounds like it could be the reason, Andy.

Steve · Sep 18, 2008, 14:00:41

I have sorted my email. Adjusted my settings at work so I can now login and have blacklisted all my spam.
Thanks to everyone for their help and advice. Such a nice place to come and get help.
