So recently I must have gotten on some crazy porn spam list, because I'm getting inundated with the stuff (like 10-20 a day).
I was only using Unibox for mail, but it doesn't seem to do much spam filtering.
So I went back to the mac mail client. When I run that, it correctly identifies the spam as junk, and removes it. So I figured I'd just keep the mac mail cilent running in the background, and it will take care of all the spam.
BUT, it doesn't work that way. For some reason, the mac mail client doesn't "check for new mail" automatically, even though that option is set in the preferences. I have to actually bring the app up from the dock, and hit the "get mail" button. Then it downloads everything since the last time I did that, and filters out the spam accordingly.
Is this a known problem with Mavericks? Anyone know a better solution?
