For unknown reasons, the yahoo mail service seems to have arbitrarily decided to mark a whole lot of my emails from friends as SPAM (in the last 3 - 4 months). The problem is I didn't even know this happened or was happening because I usually use OUTLOOK Express and very rarely login via web. These are never in the outlook express SPAM folder, its only in the Yahoo-mail Spam folder. While doing a quick check in the SPAM folder (web login) I found a whole lot of good emails (I haven't touched the SPAM filter setting in 3 yrs). I marked these as NOT SPAM. That didn't do the trick, because lo and behold —few weeks later I checked and there were the same emails ! I did the NOT SPAM thing again. Thats not fixing this ! I found a friends email in there again tonight —I've already marked him as NOT SPAM about 4 times in the last 10 days. Do you know if this is a BUG ? Its never happend before, and its very annoying…

Normally Email id wont be blocked in first stage unless you mark it as spam.
The reason for lot of your friends id is block is due the the IP address they use. They might be using Dynamic IP address. So this problem happens.

Try adding your friends email addresses to your address book…. that should prevent them from being marked as spam.
