Open the Netscape or Mozilla mail tool (Window, Mail and Newsgroups). Create a new mailbox (with File, New, Mailbox) to hold messages identified as SPAM. Enter a name for the mailbox (for example, Spam) and make sure the Messages Only button is checked. Click OK.

 

Open Tools, Message Filters. Click the New button. Enter a name for your filter (for example, Spam Filter).  In the first pull-down menu, select Subject, and enter ***SPAM*** into the text field.  In the Perform this action menu, select Move to folder, then select your Spam folder (created in step 1) in the second menu. Click OK to close the Filter Rules box, and close the Message Filters box. 

 

Periodically check the Spam folder, and empty it of unwanted messages.
