When I check Spam on an email, does that disable the sender's email account?

I wish it did. Then I wouldn't have to make an abuse report with full headers. I get all kinds of emails saying they want me to be next of kin or that I won a lottery, etc.

That would certainly be nice - but then people would abuse this power to get LEGITIMATE users (such as yourself) deleted in the same manner!





That's why they give us a Spam Folder - so that all that crap can be dumped into one place, but you CAN rescue anything that SHOULDN'T be there ;);););)
Reply:Good Lord, if you make an abuse report out of every spam you get, I'm surprised Yahoo hasn't disabled YOUR account. Yahoo knows you get spam - they know I get spam. They know everyone in the world gets spam, because Yahoo is the world's largest provider of free email.


Click on spam and stop opening this crap and you'll get less and less of it.
