Window live mail junk mail sweep

Aug 16, 2012 10:44AM PDT

So we all know that opening junk mail is well bad lol. i like the sweep option with windows live, however when swept it goes to deleted folder and guess what all junk mail is open in deleted folder.. Which explains why the same BS junk email continues to arrive in junk folder or the inbox constantly.

So not caring particularly about email all that much i have never bothered to learn how to set rules for mail..

So is there a way when junk mail is swept that it remains unopened or just bypass the delete folder all together? i suspect not.. my motto for Windows anything concerning security it is a lot like surfing the Pacific Ocean on a screen door
