I’m receiving spam through LearningStone. How do I stop that?Spam can be sent to you if someone has been sharing mail (either by mistake or through a virus). As LearningStone uses a special mail alias, you can stop the spam from being sent to you by resetting this alias. If you get spam regularly, go to Preferences > LearningStone email address to reset it. Don’t do it too quickly as others won’t be able to reply directly to recently sent messages. |
