Gmail Questions

Well been using Gmail from the start, well near to it, and love it, was
a change at the start not having directories but it is by far the best
online mail client.br
br
My only problem is as I run quite a few sites, I get spammed to hell
(1500 a day) and so I try to bloke most of it and sometimes normal
emails get blokedbr
br
Is there anyway to search your spam folder or trash? Maybe I am missing something but never worked out how to do itbr

brbrWhat you should do is, you should get another gmail account...maybe with a number change such as... [email]youremail1@gmail.com[/url] and then use that as your "spam" account. I do this, because i hate when people get ahold of my real email on some of those sites that start spaming you.br

mondine is an unknown quantity at this point
Another thing you could do, is put in a human 'safety' word.brLike, if you have an address that must be exposed, include an instruction to include a key word in the subject line.brThat way, you can weed out the spambots, and send mail filtered on that word to a 'review' label/folder, before it gets flushed.brbrEdit:brI've never noticed this before, but I just searched an account for something, and got this message:br"No messages matched your criteria. Would you like to expand your search to include the spam and trash folders?"brMaybe that's new; maybe I just never came across it before.br
