I just came to the _exact_ same conclusion! Many of us don't take a chance on missing important emails by dl the bulk mail folder. I've found emails from family and friends, those who use a webmail accounts, often enough in the bulk mail folder. I may tell Yahoo that it's not spam but don't want to take a chance for the future when new friends start sending me mail, etc.
How can we get YahooPOPs! to dl bulk directly into a pre-designated folder? I've not seen anything regarding this but all these years it's been such a problem which I finally got fed up with since I've again re-registered with a bunch of yahoo groups that I'd given up a few years back before using YahooPOPs!. I've been spending time setting up new rules in Outlook and am also looking for a spam filtering program, as a first, but if we could get it right at the source via YahooPOPs! that would be great.
All YP! needs to do is precede the subject line of all emails dl from the bulk folder with something like:
[Bulk Folder items]
We can all set up rules in our individual email clients to do the rest!
Please advise and thanks!
