| 1442036 | 2017-11-16 01:24:00 | Ian, spam in GMail, Outlook.co.nz and Hotmail, nowhere as bad as ClearNet/Vodafone. Those first 3 have a box to tick for "block", can't put up a description as I have read and deleted morning's mail, sorry. Be interesting once Vodafone closes it's email service, used to get over 20 spam emails, but Clear is only sending up to 9 now. lurking. ps. don't know how others' are getting on with, getting new email addresses. lurks. |

| 1442037 | 2017-11-16 02:23:00 | perhaps a keyword filter in Gmail or Tbird spam filter. You may be able to block/move emails that contain keywords, such as 'bitcoin' Otherwise , they should eventually just get blocked or the sender will be shut down. Then move onto the next spammer. Just they way it is . |

| 1442042 | 2017-11-17 23:32:00 | In your first post you mention Thunderbird. Are you opening your gmail in Thunderbird or in the Google gmail program. www.google.com |

| 1442043 | 2017-11-18 01:09:00 | Yes if you go straight to Gmail as per Driftwood and Settings + Filters you can see your existing filters and work from there. Alternatively open one of the problem messages, use the "more" dropdown and choose "Filter messages like this" I suspect your issue is more with using Thunderbird, go direct to Gmail. (Can't see the need for Thunderbird myself) |
