I get a ton of junk mail. Usually, Mail does a good job of flagging them and they usually show up orange but I still get alerted when I get new junk mail. It's very annoying because in a few hours, I usually get like 10-20 new mails only to find out that they're all junk. How can I setup a junk mail bin so that I won't get alerted anymore when new junk mail arrives?
Got a tip for us?

Ah, I'm still on Tiger and didn't realize they had removed the "Automatic" subtitle from the "Move it to the Junk mailbox" option. 😱

Are there advantages to remaining on Tiger, instead of upgrading to Leopard? Just curious.
Not really. I usually wait a bit before upgrading to be sure that none of the apps I need are broken by the new version, but at this point it's just laziness and a lack of any compelling features for me. I'll get around to it at some point. 😀
