I think its an option in the Gmail POP3 settings.

Also, gmail with thunderbird is amazing

Ive never had junk mail in Gmail, maybe you shouldn't sign up to porn sites with your gmail you n00bs.

As we are writing about Gmail, I have quite a lot of invites.

I will put in 3, when they've gone, send me a message with name, first, second names, e-mail address (Not Gmail) and I will send you 1 of the 7 I have spare.

I have others on my other Gmail accounts totalling 60 or so, they are promised.

I don't know if this is old or not, but just seen it, GMail truly is the greatest ever.

I have had hundreds on my few accounts. They end up in spam, all bar 1 did, so seems google got something right.

for all those look for gmail check the queue or ask me i got 6 now

[DrunknMunky Veteran]

Gmail is the best, I've never had any spam and I was given 4invites as soon as I signed up lol :D

I use Thunderbird and I dont get any of the spam/trash etc, just normal emails :)

Also got 6 invites if anyone wants one

Dudes right now my Spam folder is fileld with 10 spam messages. Only my sister and my girlfriend have my gmail address. I have a Yahoo account and I have yet to see Spam on it. I am sorry, but Gmail IS NOT the greatest. They need to add a feature that will automatically delete spam because I am honestly getting fed up with those damn unsolicited messages.

99% of spam is caught in my spam folder in GMail. It's great :)

So far I have been using GMail for at least 2 months I would say.

I have 2 accounts so far, and the one I use the most (which honestly is not that often at all I maybe check it twice a month, I admit I am bad with it and half of the time I forget I even have it) has literally caught 100% of the Spam. So far out of the 57 Spam emails I have gotten, 57 were correctly indentified as such.

The other account I have set up, which I dont use muc at all just yet, I am not sure how, but not one piece of Spam has gotten to it yet.

My point of sharing this is not to say GMail is better than any other service, to each his own and what you choose to use, however I am saying it is not bad at all.
