How often do you check your junk mail?

I am not in the habit of checking junk mail often unless it is for something that I am looking for and can't imagine where it is. It is usually located there. However, I have resolved I need to do it more often. I was looking at it the other day and saw several items of interest that should have gone to the main inbox. I guess I am going to have to safe sender many other things. However, once you transfer it it asks if you want to consider forevermore not junk, and I do for most things I end up transferring.

Yeah, I hate that. I saw some things I would want to follow up on.

@LadyDuck It's not a bad idea since some of your email probably contains financials anyway.

@snowy22315 After 30 days the spam messages are deleted, this is why I check every day to be sure that nothing went there my mistake.

I don´t check them often unless I feel that I should have received something.

@snowy22315 I think I looked about six months ago when I was expecting something in my inbox and couldn't find it. It was there. But it would be the only time I go there.

the first time i realised that some emails went to my junk mail instead of inbox, i started to check my junk mail daily, just in case. but, yes, before, it was mainly to find some things that i moved there, unwanted mail and its senders

I’ll check the main mail account daily. I don’t even know if I have any junk mail in my AOL accounts, or why I even still have AOL accounts.

I haven't checked my junk mail in forever. I'm embarrassed to say that my whole email account is overflowing with unread emails. Most stuff that comes through my email is not important anyway. I really should take the time to delete it all but who wants to spend the time doing such a boring task.

I saw some app called unenroll or something that is supposed to clean your email. I might check that out.

My Gmail puts everything suspicious into my SPAM folder and then I quickly glance over the mail in there and delete everything, Once or twice something has fallen in there that shouldn't be and then I just send it back to Inbox,

I check mine every day. That way it doesn't pile up. Often there is legitimate mail in there. Have a good weekend.

I check it now and then just to be sure nothing of import ends up accidentally sent there.
Most things that end up in my junk folder though, I'm usually glad end up there,handy little tool to have available.

They do get it right alot of the time, but too much gets sent there, at least in my case.
